There are three categories (including 18 key areas) related to nutrition outlined in the Health of the Nation strategy
Paediatrics and intensive care were areas where knowledge of nutrition was regarded as important
The pilot questionnaire reflects knowledge levels in the study unit; further refinement of the tool would be necessary for future studies
The nutrition knowledge among nursing staff was less than shown in other studies
The study highlighted an urgent need for nutrition education among the nursing staff in the unit.
