Planning Goal & expected outcomes

Nursing intervention Assessing for nutritional risk, observing intake and appetite, evaluating the patients food tolerance, assisting the patient with eating, consulting with the dietitian and physician, addressing potential medication/ nutrient reaction
More nursing interventions Obtaining more food or snacks for the patient if appropriate, monitor food brought in by visitors, participating in nutrition education efforts
Nursing interventions; stimulating the appetite Small, frequent meals, control pain (nausea with meds); solicit (ask) food preference, schedule procedures and meds at times when they are least likely to interfere with appetite
