THE NUTRITION CARE PROCESS
The Nutrition Care Process (NCP) is a standardized approach intended to guide registered
dietitians in providing high-quality nutrition care.
The Nutrition Care Process (NCP) is a systematic approach to providing high quality nutrition
care. The NCP consists of four distinct, interrelated steps:
- Nutrition Assessment: The RDN collects and documents information such as food or nutrition related history; biochemical data, medical tests and procedures; anthropometric measurements,
nutrition-focused physical findings and client history.
- Nutrition Diagnosis: Data collected during the nutrition assessment guides the RDN in selection
of the appropriate nutrition diagnosis (i.e., naming the specific problem).
- Nutrition Intervention: The RDN then selects the nutrition intervention that will be directed to
the root cause (or etiology) of the nutrition problem and aimed at alleviating the signs and
symptoms of the diagnosis.
- Nutrition Monitoring/Evaluation: The final step of the process is monitoring and evaluation,
which the RDN uses to determine if the client has achieved, or is making progress toward, the
planned goals.
Using the NCP does not mean that all clients get the same care. Use of a care process provides a
framework for the RDN to individualize care, taking into account the client’s needs and values
and using the best evidence available to make decisions. Other disciplines in healthcare,
including nursing, physical therapy and occupational therapy have adopted care processes
specific to their discipline. In 2003, the Academy's House of Delegates adopted the NCP to
provide RDNs with a framework for critical thinking and decision-making — leading to more
efficient and effective care and greater recognition of the role of RDNs in all care settings.
