If a patient understands the plan but is not following it what is the most suitable next step?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Identify adherence barriers and set small goals
Understanding instructions does not guarantee that a patient can apply them. The dietitian should explore barriers such as cost, time, family support, taste, work schedule, emotional stress, or side effects. Together they should select small, measurable, realistic goals and review progress. Collaborative problem-solving is more effective than blame or unnecessary complexity.
