Supporting nutrition and hydration in healthcare

This self-assessment helps you reflect on your confidence in supporting nutrition and hydration in healthcare. It helps identify learning needs and areas to discuss in supervision. It does not confirm competence. It does not replace formal training, observation of practice, employer checks, professional judgement, or local policy. Supporting eating, drinking, food safety, and hydration can affect safety and wellbeing. If you score 1 or 2 on any statement, treat this as a priority learning need. Follow your employer policy and speak with your manager, supervisor, or relevant senior person before carrying out related tasks independently.
