Answer to Question 1

In treating a client with diverticulitis, intellectual standards should be used so a nutrition diagnosis can be determined and an intervention plan developed. The RD should seek to ensure that the dietary information obtained is adequate, that any confusing statements made by the client are clarified, and that the nutrition diagnosis is plausible and consistent with the assessment data collected.

Answer to Question 2

The activities involved in decision making include identifying and defining a problem or situation, assessing all options for solving the problem, weighing each option against a set of criteria, testing possible options, considering the consequences of the decision, and making a final decision.
