Answer to Question 1

Nurses interact closely with patients and thus are in an ideal position to identify people who would benefit from nutrition services. Nurses may screen patients for nutrition problems and participate in nutrition and dietary assessments. Nurses also provide direct nutrition care, such as encouraging patients to eat, finding solutions to food-related problems, monitoring food intakes, and answering questions about special diets. As members of nutrition support teams, nurses are responsible for administering tube and intravenous feedings. In facilities that do not employ registered dietitians, nurses often assume responsibility for much of the nutrition care. Examples of nutrition-related nursing diagnoses include constipation, disturbed body image, impaired oral mucous membranes, nausea, and risk for deficient fluid volume.

Answer to Question 2

B
