Answer to Question 1

A

Answer to Question 2

A
Feedback:
Nutritional counseling by nurses and dietitians is more effective and efficient than that done by dietitians alone. Physicians do not normally provide nutritional counseling, and dietitians alone cannot reinforce what is taught because they are limited in the amount of times they are in contact with the client. Teaching can include the client's family; nutritional counseling should include the client.
