Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Charting is the most commonly viewed genre by an interdisciplinary team as it is an essential part of patient care and is often reviewed and updated by multiple healthcare professionals involved in a patient's care. Brochures, handouts, and memos may be important for patient education and communication within a healthcare facility but are not typically reviewed by the entire interdisciplinary team. Charting is the most common genre used by dietitians on an interdisciplinary team as it allows for documentation of patient nutrition status, interventions and progress in a format that can easily be shared and referenced by all members of the healthcare team. Brochures, handouts and memos may be useful for providing supplemental information, education or instructions, but may not be as frequently utilized in interdisciplinary team communication and collaboration.
