Patient safety events, including administrative errors, mismanagement of nutrition therapies, and failures in providing timely care, have far-reaching consequences on the health outcomes of any patient who requires medical nutrition therapy and nutrition support, regardless of age. These events not only pose immediate risks but can also initiate a cascade of adverse outcomes that lead to or exacerbate malnutrition. This can empower members of the healthcare team to prioritize safety in nutrition care. Working to prevent patient safety failures is crucial for enhancing patient outcomes and reducing the burden of malnutrition in clinical and home settings.
