Abstract: In late 2021, the British Columbia Provincial Interprofessional Skin & Wound Committee, led by Shannon Handfield, saw the need for a nutrition-focused dietitian sub-committee to develop provincial resources for health-care team members caring for clients with, and at-risk for, wounds.Over the course of 18 months, the document Nutrition for Wound Prevention & Management: Guideline for Dietitians was created.  This article documents the process.
