Tiivistelmä
Nutritional care is an important part of supporting recovery from diseases and rehabilitation. It is a key form of treatment for many diseases and the only treatment in some cases. Good nutritional care reduces the need for other treatment actions and promotes the effectiveness and impact of other treatment. It may also reduce the need for pharmacotherapy and shorten the length of highly specialised care. The aim of the guidelines for patients nutritional care and offered meals are to describe the nutritional care process as a seamless entity in which food services and institutional maintenance are linked to the care process. The publication contains information and instructions as well as assessment and monitoring tools related to developing and implementing nutritional care in the new service system. These new guidelines are based on international recommendations and guidelines, research data in the fields of clinical nutrition and medicine, and good practices. The guidelines are intended for everyone who guides, plans and participates in a patient s nutritional care or the implementation of food services in public and private social and health care services. It can provide the basis for preparing more detailed organisation-specific instructions for nutritional care and service descriptions related to food services. The guidelines for nutritional care are also suitable as a textbook for universities and universities of applied sciences. The guidelines for nutritional care have been produced by the National Nutrition Council and the Finnish Institute for Health and Welfare in cooperation with a wide-ranging expert panel on nutritional care.
