A case study about the Nutrition Wheel has been shared by NHS England and NHS Improvement through the Beneficial Changes Network FutureNHS Platform as a useful resource for others to learn from.

The platform supports people working in health and social care to improve and transform across organisations, places, and professions.

The Nutrition Wheel is an interactive tool developed by BU researchers to help identify malnutrition in older people in the community.

The Nutrition Wheel tool can be used as a conversation starter to help identify if an older person is at risk of malnutrition at an early stage. It provides guidance, advice and signposting to further information, and support on next steps.

It was developed in partnership between BU and the Wessex Academic Health Science Network (AHSN), in conjunction with key stakeholder organisations in the community and charities including The Patients Association and Age UK.
