These findings suggest that: (i) the meaning of PCC in dietetics should be clarified to ensure it is being practiced consistently; (ii) undergraduate curricula require a greater emphasis on PCC so that dietitians graduate with the necessary knowledge and skills; (iii) there is a need for more professional development training to facilitate uptake of PCC in practice; and (iv) quantitative measurement of PCC using validated instruments is needed to evaluate PCC in the dietetic setting. Addressing some of these factors may assist dietitians to adopt these practices.
