The aim of this quality improvement project was to improve patients' knowledge about their vitamin B12 deficiency by developing an information leaflet and engaging nursing staff in providing this educational tool to patients with the condition.

An increase in patient knowledge following provision of the leaflet was predicted, and achieved.
