The INIS tool
Researchers and dietitians from 18 countries across the world have jointly developed the INIS tool to measure and explore dietitians’ NCP/NCPT and Electronic Health Records experiences. The INIS tool currently exists in nine languages (English, Danish, French (Canadian/Swiss), German (Swiss), Greek, Norwegian, Portuguese, Spanish and Swedish) and it has been thoroughly validated in these languages as well as in different countries across the world.
In 2023, a modified version of the tool was developed for ICF-Dietetics. The modified INIS-ICF-Dietetics tool has been validated in Dutch, French (Belgian), and two versions of German (Austrian and German, respectively).
The INIS tool consists of five modules that can be used separately or together:
1) Demographics
2) NCP/NCPT implementation
3) NCP/NCPT Attitudes
4) NCP/NCPT knowledge
5) Electronic Health Records and Outcomes Management
