    Author: Kris-Etherton PM, Lindsay CA, Smutz WD, Chernoff R.
    Journal: J Am Diet Assoc; 1983 Dec; 83(6):654-60. PubMed ID: 6643878.
    Abstract:
    Clinical dietitians in Pennsylvania (N = 185) responded to a survey (based on the practice description developed by the Clinical Dietetics Profession Team of the Continuing Professional Education Development Project) in which they rated time spent on and perceived importance of 11 responsibilities and 120 tasks in their practice. Practitioners spent the most time on responsibilities and tasks that they perceived to be most important. Responsibilities rated high in terms of time spent and importance were nutrition care implementation, nutrition care planning, nutrition assessment, and nutrition care evaluation. Dietitians reported spending a considerable amount of time on activities related to documentation.
