NOF Clinician's Guide

The NOF Clinician's Guide refers to guidelines published by the National Osteoporosis Foundation (NOF) to help healthcare professionals assess, prevent, and treat osteoporosis, a condition that weakens bones and increases fracture risk. It emphasizes the importance of screening for bone health, understanding risk factors, and recommending lifestyle changes, such as diet and exercise. The guide also outlines medical treatments that may benefit individuals diagnosed with osteoporosis, ensuring that clinicians can provide effective care to help maintain bone strength and reduce the likelihood of fractures, particularly in older adults.
