Explain ways in which nutrition counselors can assess their own effectiveness
• Client Evaluation of Counselor. An evaluation form such as The CARE Measure can be used to evaluate client interactions with counselors.
• Assessing Client's Nonverbal Behavior. Throughout a counseling session a client's non-verbal behavior can be a key to his or her emotional state and can indicate how the counseling session is going.
• Checking. Counselors can provide periodic summaries, and asking client's reaction to the summary can help counselors to evaluate whether they are on target during a counseling session.
• Counseling Checklists (Interview Guides). Previously prepared counseling guides can be reviewed to assess whether all planned counseling interventions were addressed.
• Charting. Charting can be a valuable tool to evaluate counseling effectiveness as well as client progress.
• Videotape, Audiotape, or Observation Evaluations. Counselors can conduct self-evaluations of their skills by using a video- or audiotape or have a colleague or mentor conduct an assessment. An assessment instrument can be used to guide the evaluation.
