- Nutrition and Hydration Week has taken place every March since 2012. Its purpose is to bring people together to create energy, focus and fun in order to highlight and educate people on the value of food and drink in maintaining health and well being in health and social care.
- Organisations from around the world and from all areas of health and social care take part and new organisations are welcome to join in the fun.
They aim to widely promote:
- the 10 key characteristics for good nutritional care.
- Protected meal times.
- Nutrition Advocates for each health or social care setting.
- The minimum standards for good nutrition in all settings.
- Sharing good nutrition and hydration practices.
- Continued Education and Professional Development.
