Abstract:
Adequate nutrition is a key among hospitalized patients. It is crucial and most significant aspect of improving quality of life of inpatients. However, hospitals in developing nations challenged with adequate meal provisions. In Tanzania, meal provision isn’t part of inpatients service. This impacted quality of life, causing an increased number of days in hospital stay. Furthermore, research has demonstrated the significance of food consumption to promote recovery. Cross-sectional study design was used in this study. Data were analyzed for descriptive statistical inferences by using R st

Abstract:
Aim: Hospital food provision is subject to multiple constraints (meal production, organization, health safety, environmental respect) which influence the meal tray offered to the patient. Multiple diets can add complexity and contribute to non-consumption of the meal. To avoid undernutrition, it appeared necessary to propose guidelines for foods and diets in hospitals. Methods: These guidelines were developed using the Delphi method, as recommended by the HAS (French Health Authority), based on a formal consensus of experts and led by a group of practitioners and dieticians from the AFDN (Fren

INTRODUCTION The aim of this study was to observe current practice of the use of hip precautions following hemiarthroplasty for hip fractures in England and to audit the cost of hip precautions in this patient group. METHODS A telephone review was undertaken of all units identified by the National Hip Fracture Database as receiving centres for hip fractures across England to ascertain current practice in the use of hip precautions. A prospective audit of occupational therapy (OT) practice including the cost of equipment provision and OT time was carried out locally. RESULTS All 174 units in En

Abstract:
Rural Health and Care Wales (RHCW) was asked by the RHCW Stakeholder Group to review the Community Hospital provision across Mid Wales in order to ascertain their true value to the Mid Wales population, this value not always accurately reflected in national evaluation markers. The Mid Wales region comprises the most rural areas of Wales and is sparsely populated, with limited provision in terms of major health care sites. It has one district hospital (Bronglais, Aberystwyth) but a number of very important, supportive Community Hospitals. For the purpose of this research, Mid Wales is defined a
