Global Malnutrition Composite Score for IQR
The new Global Malnutrition Composite Score quality measure will be available for 2024 hospital reporting.
On this page:
The MQii Toolkit was created prior to the development of the Global Malnutrition Composite Score (GMCS) and its inclusion in the Hospital IQR Program. Therefore, the Toolkit version linked below does not contain details on GMCS implementation. While we update the Toolkit with GMCS-specific information, please refer to the Quick Start Guide or the full GMCS for IQR page.
The MQii Toolkit is a guide for identifying and implementing clinical quality improvements for malnutrition care. It is designed to support changes among the care team’s clinical knowledge and raise awareness of best practices for optimal nutrition care delivery. Using this toolkit can help improve malnutrition care for older adults admitted to the hospital through patient-centered approaches that improve coordination across the care team.
Before you begin, see how ready you are to begin a quality improvement initiative by taking this Readiness Questionnaire. If you or your team has limited direct experience implementing a clinical quality improvement initiative, please review this primer titled the MQii Principles and Models of Quality Improvement.
A streamlined guide intended for electronic use, which links directly to resources available on the MQii website.
