NCP
The NCP is a systematic method that dietetics and nutrition professionals use to provide nutrition care and is visually summarized by the Nutrition Care Process Model. Use of the NCP does not mean that all clients get the same care. Use of the nutrition care process provides a framework for professionals to customize care, taking into account the client's needs and values and using the best evidence available to make decisions. Use of the NCP can lead to more efficient and effective care, nutrition research, and greater recognition of the role of dietetics and nutrition professionals in all settings.
