Licensed Medical Nutrition Therapist (LMNT) 

  

A Medical Nutrition Therapist applies the nutrition care process of: 1) assessment, 2) intervention, and 3) monitoring and evaluating.  Registered Dietitians (RD) are trained in the nutrition care process.  In Nebraska, this scope of the RD's work is licensed. 

  

The nutrition care process involves the assessment of nutritional status followed by treatment, ranging from diet modification to specialized nutrition support, such as determining nutrient needs for enteral and parenteral nutrition, and monitoring to evaluate patient or client's response to the treatment plan. 

  

If you have a health concern that is caused or affected by the food you eat, then you are one of the thousands of Nebraskans who can benefit from the experience and training of a Registered Dietitian (RD) and Licensed Medical Nutrition Therapist (LMNT). 

  

The Nebraska Health and Human Services System web page www.hhs.state.ne.us/crl/mhcs/nutrition/nutrition.htm  provides detailed information for requirements and application for licensed medical nutrition therapy.
