Answer to Question 1

Changes in nutrition therapy recommendations are inevitable because of new developments in science and medicine, including ongoing research in nutrition therapy. A dietitian must be able to critically review research findings by utilizing the research methodology skills learned during dietetics education. Dietetics practice should not be based on tradition but on evidenced-based research. A search of medical literature reveals research articles that may support change that could be implemented into facility policy.

Answer to Question 2

The component of critical thinking evolves from experience within dietetic practice. Dietitians do not learn from textbooks alone; they also learn by observing, listening to patients, interacting with other health care professionals, reading patients' medical charts, and reflecting on the situations that arise.
