How will this trend/challenge impact the practice setting you selected or community nutritionists in general?

Do you have access to Community Nutrition in Action 8th edition by Marie A. Boyle book? Use the prompts below to learn more about potential careers in community nutrition. In your discussion board post, you can keep the questions and write your responses below, but responses need to use complete sentences and paragraphs as needed.

1) What community nutrition practice setting most appeals to you? See Table 1-5 and Professional Focus sections for inspiration. Conduct research on this setting to learn more about the services offered and the potential duties of a community nutritionist.

Use sources outside of the textbook in your research.

Write 2-3 sentences summarizing your selection (e.g., the setting, the services, potential duties of a community nutritionist in this setting). Use AMA style to cite your sources (including what you find in the textbook). 2) Given your research, name 2 main competencies would you need in order to obtain a position in this setting and succeed?

Provide a rationale for each competency. See Pages 23-26 (“Basic Competencies…,” “Essential Practices…,” Table 1-6) 3) Select one trend or challenge from those discussed on pages 29-33.

How will this trend/challenge impact the practice setting you selected or community nutritionists in general? (e.g., what additional competencies might you need, what training/research might you need to stay current, what job opportunities might develop, etc.)
