Review of dietetic service provision and activity in spinal cord injury centres: a multicentre survey in the UK and Republic of Ireland.

The resources allocated to nutritional care in SCICs appear to be varied and limited. This suggests malnutrition may continue to be under-recognised and under-treated. To address the complex nutritional needs of this special population group there is a clear need to establish staffing level for dietitians. Information collected from the present study could contribute to the supply analysis of a future workforce planning exercise in SCIC dietetic service.
