Abstract:

Changing demographics in the United States to a minority-majority culture require health care professionals who are culturally competent to provide appropriate care to patients. In a university in the Mid-Atlantic region of the United States, a gap existed between student education and the culturally competent professional practice of entry-level registered dietitians. Using Freire's notion of social justice and Vygotsky's constructivist theory as the conceptual frameworks, the purpose of this study was to explore educators' instructional strategies that promoted cultural competence in nutriti

<p> A dietitian must earn the credentials of Registered Dietitian Nutritionist to be employed as a clinical dietitian in the hospital and public health settings (Academy, 2013). According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the job outlook for registered dietitians is expected to grow 16% by 2024 (U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, 2016). In recent years, it has been increasingly difficult to find Registered Dietitians who are willing to serve as preceptors for dietetic students, leading to a shortage of internship sites (Thompson & Gutschall, 2015).

Adolescence is a time of increased control over food choices and dietary practices. Participating in high school sports or attending college presents unique nutritional concerns and health risks. Some female high school athletes have low energy availability (consuming inadequate calories to compensate for exercise energy expenditure), which can result in menstrual dysfunction, bone loss, and injury, also known as the female athlete triad (Triad).

To mitigate the epidemic, Congress passed the Healthy, Hunger-Free Kids Act (HHFKA) in 2010, which mandated significant changes to school nutrition and physical education. From a public policy perspective, the HHFKA changed school nutrition and exercise policy to affect obesity rates by changing intake and energy expenditure at school, though no study using national-level data examined this relationship.
