The form captures essential demographic data, including client name, sex, age, and age group. The entry point into NACS is also recorded, with options including Prevention of Mother-to-Child Transmission (PMTCT), Antiretroviral Therapy (ART), Tuberculosis (TB), Maternal and Child Health (MCH), and other services. Client information is also used to track their nutritional status, with measurements including length/height, weight, mid-upper arm circumference (MUAC), and weight-for-height or body mass index (WHZ or BMI). The client's nutritional status is categorized as severe acute malnutrition (SAM) inpatient, SAM outpatient, moderate acute malnutrition (MAM), normal, overweight/obese, or underweight. Specialized food products, such as F-75 and F-100, are prescribed based on the client's nutritional needs. The form also captures information on clinical services provided, including referrals and medical complications. Bilateral pitting oedema is recorded, as well as pregnancy status and post-partum counseling on nutrition. Community services, such as graduated care, lost to follow-up, and transferred care, are also documented. Treatment failure is recorded as an exit reason. The NACS Client Card is used to track client progress and provide essential information for program management and evaluation. The form is designed to capture a range of data, including demographic information, nutritional status, and service utilization.

The data collected on the NACS Client Card is used to inform program planning, resource allocation, and service delivery.
