Nutrition Care Process and Terminology: A Practical Approach is unique! Comprised of three integrated components this learning tool provides a step-by-step approach to skill development in the use of the Nutrition Care Process and Terminology. The case studies have been designed to facilitate the acquisition of core knowledge and skills for dietetic practice. They develop both fundamental and complex dietetic skills which can be applied to broader practice. As well, they build in complexity and allow users to develop their knowledge and skills progressively.
