CHECKING FOR UNDERSTANDING

Multiple Choice

1. B. Nutrition Care Process

Rationale: 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.
2. A. Monitoring/Evaluation, C. Diagnosis, D. Assessment
Rationale: The terminology lists are organized by NCP step (Assessment, Diagnosis, Intervention, Monitoring & Evaluation) and then
broken down further by domain.

3. D. Monitoring/Evaluation
Rationale: 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.

4. A. Height, weight, body mass index (BMI), growth pattern indices/percentile ranks, and weight history
Rationale: Examples of anthropometric measurements include height, weight, circumference measurements, elbow diameter, % body
fat, and arm muscle area.

5. C. Defining the time and frequency of care, including intensity, duration, and follow-up
Rationale: Implementation is the action phase and involves: Collaborating with the client to carry out the plan of care, Communicating
the nutrition care plan, Modifying the plan of care as needed, Following up and verifying that the plan is being implemented and
Revising strategies based on changes in condition or response to intervention.
