Hospital Catering and Patient Nutrition Follow-up Review

Between March and June 2015, we undertook follow-up work at Velindre NHS Trust (the Trust) to assess the extent to which it had implemented the Auditor General’s national recommendations, and had addressed the recommendations made as part of the local audit in 2010 and again in 2012.

The Trust has made good progress in addressing recommendations to improve catering and nutrition services. More work is needed to strengthen some aspects of nutritional screening and to continue reducing the level of subsidy for non-patient catering.
