Background and Introduction
In light of recent research, the use of standardized language (SL) has been identified as a key practice tool to advance the level of practice to a higher level and support its integrity.
EFAD recommends all National Dietetic Associations to support the access and use of a chosen Nutrition Care Process/Dietetic Process (NCP) model and a Standardised Language (SL) developed for dietitians.
This can include but is not limited to licensing, translation and development of support materials and activities such as written materials, webinars, workshops, discussion groups, and websites.
