Nutrition support may be helpful to certain patients under palliative care if desired, where the patient might die from malnutrition versus disease. However, it may also cause physical distress at the end of life. Culture and religion largely impact decision-making at the end of life. RDNs are a key component to the healthcare team and can play an important role in patient/family discussions.

These discussions require competence in evidence-based medicine (EBM) regarding the risk versus benefit of nutrition support and the ability to communicate EBM to the healthcare team and patients. Awareness of diverse approaches to end of life is also needed in order to provide patient-centered care.

This session will review the EBM surrounding nutrition during palliative care and end of life scenarios, discuss diverse beliefs at end of life, and identify how the RDN can becomes actively involved in these patient/family discussions.
