BDA Outcomes Guidance Document

This data can be used to evaluate the effectiveness of the service in relation to resolving the nutritional ‘problems’. [...] The Model and Process for Nutrition and Dietetic Practice and dietetic outcome data collection The Model and Process for Nutrition and Dietetic Practice (MPNDP) (9) supports the dietitian to systematically record the integration of knowledge and skills into evidenced-based decision making with the service user at the centre. [...] The outcome is what the dietitian and service user(s) aim to achieve by the end of the intervention. [...] These should relate to the proposed outcome and must also relate directly to the nutritional ‘Problem’ section of the dietetic diagnosis. [...] In situations where the service user has alternative goals to the dietitian (“what matters to someone’ is not just ‘what’s the matter with someone’” (6)), both the service user goals and the dietetic goals should be documented.
