The Nutrition Care Process and the Nutrition Support Dietitian
نویسنده
چکیده
The Nutrition Care Process (NCP) provides registered dietitians (RDs) with a framework for critical thinking and decision making regardless of the practice setting. Nutrition support RDs can use the NCP to streamline and provide focus in identifying nutrition problems, determining the appropriate nutrition intervention, and evaluating the effectiveness of those interventions. Nutrition diagnosis facilitates communication between RDs and other health-care providers in describing the nutrition problems that the RD is responsible for treating independently. Use of the standardized terminology of dietetics in documenting the nutrition care provided allows aggregation of data from different care settings that can demonstrate outcomes achieved.
