Weight and height measures were not observed routinely for adults in all Units, and were measured by nursing auxiliaries / technicians. There is no standardized equipment for anthropometry in all units and some of them were without conditions of use. Conclusion: There is a need to adjust the Health Units for food and nutritional monitoring in relation to equipment and training of health professionals.
