?? EFAD's #MalnutritionAwarenessWeek2024 continues, and today we're highlighting the critical role of ESDN Oncology in addressing #malnutrition for patients living with #cancer. ?? ?? Key Messages for Healthcare Professionals from ESDN Oncology: Early identification of malnutrition in oncology is essential—make malnutrition screening part of the cancer care pathway. ?? Oncology dietitians are indispensable members of the multidisciplinary cancer care team. Their tailored nutritional interventions improve both clinical outcomes and quality of life for patients. ????? Malnutrition also has a significant financial impact on healthcare, making early intervention life-saving and cost-effective, especially in resource-limited settings. ?? #MalnutritionAwarenessWeek #EFAD #ESDNOncology #CancerCare #OncologyDietitians

24th September is “World Cancer Research Day”. As oncology dietitians, we want to highlight how important it is to have greater diversity of populations in cancer research to ensure we can prevent more cancers and improve quality of life and survival rates for those affected by it.
