Nutritional Principles In Nursing

In this final entry into your Nurse E-Portfolio for this course, you continue to have opportunities for reflective practice. In this entry you expand your understanding and knowledge of nutrition. Using the e-portfolio format, answer the following questions. Make sure you spend some time thinking about the answers to these questions before writing.

  • Since your mid-course entry have you made any changes in your 1-5 rating where 5 represents the most “healthy eater.” What number would you give yourself now?
  • Did your rating change? If so, in what direction and in what way? What adjustments to your diet, if any, did you make?
  • What two important nutritional principles or concepts have you learned and will always remember? What is their impact on your delivery of quality safe nursing care?
  • Select one assignment that you submitted in this course that you believe is your “best work.” Explain why you selected this assignment. Attach the assignment to your e-portfolio.
  • Submit your completed assignment by following the directions linked below. Please check the Course Calendar for specific due dates.

    Save your assignment as a Microsoft Word document. (Mac users, please remember to append the “.docx” extension to the filename.) The name of the file should be your first initial and last name, followed by an underscore and the name of the assignment, and an underscore and the date. An example is shown below:
