A Registered Dietitian (RD) plays a vital and irreplaceable role in long-term care, focusing on resident quality of life alongside their evolving nutritional needs.
Building positive relationships with residents over time is a rewarding aspect of this career.
While specific duties may vary by facility, here are some core responsibilities:
Collaboration is Key
The RD works closely with the nursing staff, including the Director of Nursing (DON), Resident Care Managers (RCMs), floor nurses, and Certified Nursing Assistants (CNAs), and additional members from the care team.
This interdisciplinary team approach ensures coordinated nutritional support for residents.
* Nutrition At Risk (NAR) Meetings : These meetings typically involve the DON, RCMs, the dietary manager, and other relevant members of the care team, such as members of the therapy department.
During this meeting, the RD addresses residents with significant weight changes, wounds, nutrition support (such as IV nutrition or tube feeding), dialysis, or any other high-risk needs.
The nursing staff updates the team on medication changes, lab values, changes in care plan, changes in food and fluid intake, and other pertinent details.
The RD analyzes this information to identify potential nutritional factors contributing to the resident's condition and recommends interventions to address them.
These interventions may include adding/reducing supplements, requesting labs, diet changes such as therapeutic or texture-modification, or requesting medication changes.
Resident care plans are personalized outlines of resident's goals of care which also may be updated during the NAR meeting, with some facilities assigning this task to the RD or a designated staff member.
The care plan is reviewed and updated regularly to reflect the resident's changing condition or progress towards goals.
* Therapy Staff Collaboration : Dietitians additionally collaborate with therapy staff such as speech language pathologists (SLP) and social workers in several ways to ensure a well-rounded approach to patient care.
* SLPs play a multifaceted role, evaluating swallowing function, recommending texture modifications and safe swallowing techniques, while also suggesting adaptive equipment like specialized utensils, cups, or feeding assistance to improve mealtime safety and efficiency.
The RD works closely with the SLP to ensure a consistent care plan for residents in order to meet their nutritional requirements in a safe and effective way.
* Social workers act as advocates for residents.
They assess emotional and social factors impacting diet (e.g., depression, cultural preferences).
They then communicate these factors to the RD who translates that into a practical and enjoyable dietary plan for the resident to meet their nutritional needs.
* Nutrition Department Collaboration : The RD also works closely with the dietary manager to ensure residents receive nutritionally adequate meals and snac...
