The Bapen report said results of screenings should be linked to care plans, which may vary according to local resources and policy.
And it said "consistent strategies to detect, prevent and treat malnutrition should be in place in care settings, including the community, where most malnutrition occurs." Patients should also have access to nutrition advice and support teams, it said.
The report's authors said more needed to be done to tackle the problem across all settings.
Patrick South, head of public affairs of Age Concern, said: "The government's plans to tackle malnutrition must look beyond the hospital setting and also address malnutrition in the community."
