    The objective of this study was to describe the care work of the nutritionist during the care of hospitalized patients in a hospital in Tacna during the year 2018. This study is descriptive and longitudinal. Patients of all ages were included, using the information collected by the hospital's nutritionist service. In total, 183,834 activities were carried out, including screening, anamnesis, anthropometric evaluation, calculation of requirements, dietary prescription, nutritional monitoring, number of nasogastric tubes, nutritional discharge plan, normal nutritional evaluation and nutritional evaluation for malnutrition. Regarding the nutritional status of the patients treated (n=4840) throughout the year, of which only 1887 had a normal diagnosis, overweight and obese patients totaled 2588, only 32 patients were underweight and 18 were malnourished. It is recommended to continue monitoring the activities carried out by the nutrition service; this information must be contrasted with other studies for comparison and with patient satisfaction.
