If the scenario is.. in the carehome ..bmi score is 2 and weight loss score is 2.. and the scenario mentions patient is acutely ill. But doesnt mention nutritional intake.. i asked the assesor if does the pt have any nutritional intake for more than 5 days.. but she told me everything is written.(written acutely ill) so wat wud be the score? 2 or 0?
If the must chart is coming in your assessment , you should ask to the assessor about food intake in last 5 days . But if it’s in skill station you can’t ask anything because it’s a silent station . In your scenario pt is acutely I’ll so score is 2. Good luck.
What will do If no idea of weight loss in past 3 month.if they don't know previous weight?

You need to ask the patient when he had last food.. if patient had last food 5 days ago then score would be 2
