A group of UK respiratory dietitians has created this scoping survey of non-CF respiratory dietetics in the UK to understand the services offered and the disparity in funding for non-CF respiratory dietetics compared with other diseases, such as cancer.
This survey hopes to explore workforce capacity, service models, MDT integration, clinical scope, and current challenges to build an accurate understanding of how dietitians support non-CF respiratory medicine care. Findings will help benchmark services, highlight gaps, and inform future workforce planning and service development.
