Anthropometrics Day!
Today our juniors got hands-on practice learning how to take a variety of anthropometric measurements, including height, weight, waist circumference, waist-to-hip circumference, and more! 📏
They also learned how to adapt their assessment techniques to meet individual needs—from using alternative measurements to estimate height for individuals who cannot stand, to appropriately adjusting weight for individuals with limb loss.
Another day of building the skills needed to provide thoughtful, individualized nutrition care! 💙🍎
