To conduct a desk review of other existing interventions promoting food security and identify best practices.
Developers of a trial of physical activity to prevent type 2 diabetes adopted a causal modelling approach that included a range of primary and desk based studies to design the intervention, identify suitable measures, and predict long term outcomes.

The final intervention will involve installing surveillance cameras throughout the unit (admissions desk, waiting rooms, corridors, and consultation rooms) linked to the hospital security post.
