Nutrition-focused Physical Assessment

Nutrition-focused Physical Assessment is a method used by healthcare professionals to evaluate a person's nutritional health through careful observation and examination. This includes checking for signs like weight changes, muscle loss, and skin or hair condition, which can indicate nutritional deficiencies or imbalances. The purpose is to identify potential issues early and guide appropriate nutritional interventions. It’s a collaborative process that helps ensure individuals maintain good nutrition, supporting overall health, healing, and well-being.
