Do the regulations require that ALPS have a dietician on staff or to have menus approved by dieticians?
A. The regulations do not require a dietician to be on staff. However, they do require a dietician to approve a four week cycle of menus. This is currently an existing requirement in the Department of Aging regulations. Menus must be planned one week in advance to ensure proper diets that will meet the needs of the residents. Substitutions are permitted if they are appropriate.
