Consult Nutrition

At work, hospital clinical dietitian. Nutrition consult is ordered--checked with doctor pt just needs nutritiin supplements. Great, talked to pt, he is agreeable. Checked back next morning. Pt had procedure his evening meal was cold. He did not eat much. Next morning pt was NPO another procedure. I am working to get sick patients to eat per the doctor's request and what does the doctor do? He cuts them off of food! An event in the day of a clinical dietitian!
