Abstract

Although formal screening for IFI and HFI are limited, innovative programming addressing both are evident across hospitals. Identification of key factors for activation of hospital FI work can support hospitals interested in pursuing this work. Despite barriers, hospitals can support food security through advocacy, partnerships, and innovative programs. Sustainable efforts will require funding and broader governance for accountability.
