All inpatients should have a MUST calculated within the first 24 hours of admission. Malnutrition Universal Screening Tool (MUST) training is available for all ward colleagues.
Please contact Dietetic Assistant Practitioners, Aminah Ziarab or Shamila Tufail, on 01484 34 2749 to arrange training. These sessions usually take around 20 minutes and can be arranged for either your ward or for individuals.
BAPEN, a Charitable Association that raises awareness of malnutrition, has a large resource centre dedicated to MUST which includes full MUST booklets, MUST calculators and MUAC/Ulna calculators if you would like more information.
