How can diet changes be handled after trays are assembled?
Critical diet changes that must be honored at the next meal (such as a new admission) are handled by utilizing extra trays, which are preassembled on the trayline and held for the next meal. The extra trays consist of foods that can generally be used on all diets. The content and number of trays to assemble is predetermined by the Patient Services Manager and the A la Cart PC prior to implementation, based on the activity pattern of diet changes for each facility.
