This easy-to use guide shows how to incorporate standardized Nutrition Care Process Terminology into everyday pediatric practice. The book reviews 15 conditions an RDN may encounter in the pediatric setting and walks you through how to apply the Nutrition Care Process (NCP). Each chapter contains common nutrition assessment terms for a specific condition, sample PES statements, common nutrition intervention terminology, nutrition monitoring and evaluation examples, and a case study based on the authors' day-to-day practices. The guide will be particularly helpful if you are new to pediatrics, cross-covering another specialty area or in need of more examples of how to integrate the nutrition care you provide into the NCP using standardized terms. You'll also find it to be an invaluable resource when collecting and sharing outcomes.
