Oral Nutritional Supplements

Best Practice Guidance from 2018 Short Life Working Group (SLWG) on Oral Nutritional Supplements:

The ONS SLWG recommend that NHS Boards make use of these when developing or next reviewing their ONS formulary. This supports the direction of travel towards a single national formulary.

The ONS SLWG recommend that these be implemented across all health and care settings and multi-disciplinary teams, making use of local processes for guideline acceptance and compliance. Current ONS policies and guidelines should be reviewed and updated in line with these.
