Abstract
The guidelines aim to prevent and manage undernutrition and overnutrition in adolescents and adults at various service delivery points in health facilities and communities. They are aligned with the National Multi-Sector Nutrition Policy 2017-2021, the National Multi-Sector Nutrition Strategic Plan 2017-2021, and the National HIV Strategic Plan 2015-2020. The guidelines provide minimum standards for delivering a comprehensive set of nutrition interventions, including nutrition assessment, counseling, care plans, and support, as well as monitoring and reporting. They are intended for healthcare providers, policymakers, and other stakeholders involved in delivering NCST services.
