Enhancing oncology care at Mercy Hospital Dunedin

Great work @Elena sorting out this valuable piece of clinical informatics:

Mercy Hospital in Dunedin is screening 99 percent of oncology patients for malnutrition after implementing an online Malnutrition Screening Tool (MST) as part of its patient management system, InterSystems TrakCare.
