Process guides for nutrition care in community health.
The process of nutrition care is central to the clinical management of the public health client. However, this care is not often provided by the public health nurse. Thus, process guides that describe the techniques and strategies for providing nutrition care are important components of continuing education for those health professionals. This article presents one format for the development and presentation of such guides. Procedures for implementing the guides in public health practice are also described.
