Description
"Certification in nutrition support offers you the opportunity to gain
recognition from administrators, peers, other health professionals
and the public. Additionally, certification brings with it a satisfaction
of achievement and acknowledgement as a credentialed professional
in the field of nutrition support therapy. The annual IRC offered by
A.S.P.E.N. provides an overview of nutrition support therapy that
can be used as a tool for helping you identify personal knowledge
gaps. Whether you are preparing for the certification examinations
or seeking additional professional growth, recognizing these
knowledge gaps allows you to use your professional development
time and energy more effectively. The IRC divides topics into core
subjects, areas of major emphasis for practice and the certification
examinations and specialty subjects. This session will include a broad
overview of the core subjects including GI physiology, nutrition
assessment, parenteral nutrition and enteral nutrition. The review of
specialty areas, such as pediatric nutrition support, statistics, home
care and drug nutrient interactions, is intended to hit the highlights
of the subject. Don’t miss this invaluable review of nutrition support
therapy featuring renowned experts in the field."
