Assessment:
Patient is not consuming enough calories for her activity level and is under the recommended servings for nearly all
food groups.
Patient demonstrated concern about iron levels and high T-score; found that she is Iron deficient and
Vitamin D deficient (affecting her calcium absorption).

Plan:
Intervention Provide My Plate My Wins Daily Checklist and explain/demonstrate (with current food
record) the importance of meeting daily recommended servings within food groups (this should remedy
most nutrient concerns as well as the low caloric intake); Provide recommendation for Vitamin D
supplement and being more active outdoors to boost calcium absorption and build bone mineral density;
Also provide Mayo clinics list of iron rich foods as well to be incorporated to the daily diet with a serving of Vitamin C
rich foods

Goals Become more conscious of calorie and food group intake to support activity level; boost iron stores; boost
calcium absorption; Have patient fill out Daily Checklist at least 2x a week for 3 weeks to consciously build a habit and
then on the 4th week fill out a 3-day food record (including supplement compliance) and return for follow-up.

Monitor/Reassess Will reassess the food record to see if positive change has taken place, will reassess
intervention tool and determine if it was effective for patient, will check hemoglobin levels as well as BMD and T-
score. If hemoglobin levels do not improve will provide a recommendation for iron supplement. Patient may
make a follow-up appointment sooner if needed.
