Nutrition (Staff Training)

Question
To ask the Secretary of State for Health what requirements in respect of knowledge of nutrition and malnutrition are placed on registrants by each health and social care regulatory body.
Answer

It is the responsibility of the appropriate regulatory bodies that set standards for health and social care education and training to determine how much knowledge registrants require of specific health and social care issues such as nutrition and malnutrition. My hon. Friend may find it helpful to contact the regulatory bodies direct to obtain this information in respect to those health and social care professions about which he is interested.
