Registered dietitian nutritionists (RDNs) at Legacy Salmon Creek Medical Center (Washington) recognized a need to use nutrition to help patients recover faster and stay independent longer. With the goal of decreasing 30-day hospital readmission rates, the RDNs at Legacy Salmon Creek developed a program for posthospital nutrition care. The intervention was a pilot program designed to provide palatable and nutritious meals to patients at home during a 4-week, postdischarge interval. The RDNs obtained approval from hospital administrators and received buy-in from nursing staff who participated in RDN-led training on malnutrition awareness and risk screening. Results of the pilot program indicated a high level of patient satisfaction and a decrease in the rate of readmissions. FUNDING/SUPPORT: Publication of this supplement was supported by Abbott.
