Dietetic Practice in the United Arab Emirates: Assessment, Intervention, Collaboration, and Digital Tool Utilization
This study identified strengths and gaps in dietetic practice in the UAE. Despite the common use of standard assessment tools and evidence-based interventions, limitations such as lack of comprehensive assessment, use of less-supported diets, limited collaboration, and inadequate evaluation of digital tools highlight the need for clearer guidelines, enhanced professional training, and stronger alignment with professional standards.
