If the patient does not understand the language, why are translation or simple local language necessary?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: To ensure understanding and correct adherence
Clear language enables the patient to understand food choices, portions, timing, restrictions, medicines, and warning signs. When instructions are understood, the patient can make informed decisions and follow the plan more accurately. Translation therefore supports safety, autonomy, adherence, and better communication between the patient and dietitian.
