Cultural Competency
Providing the best possible care for clients in a country with an increasing immigrant population, requires dietitians to be able to understand the various cultures of their clients and what foods are important to them. Nutrition professionals must be open minded and also willing to treat each client as an individual, regardless of origin, gender, religion or race. Foods of immigrants may be different from what you are used to eating and therefore will impact the nutrition counselling that you provide. It is important for nutrition and health providers to understand different cultures and their diets in order to provide the most effective treatments.
