🚫🚿 Stop wet nesting in its tracks! 🚫🧼 Air-dry all utensils, pots, and pans before stacking them. Wet nesting—placing freshly washed items together—can lead to bacteria growth. Avoid using service towels, as they can leave moisture behind and spread bacteria. Instead, follow FDA guidelines and air-dry everything. 🛑 Tip: Recommend for your facilities to invest in racks and carts for proper air circulation and ensure items are completely dry before nesting them. Keep your kitchen safe and clean! 👩‍🍳👨‍🍳

Dietitians who work with nursing home patients are urging the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services not to remove critical coding that helps identify seniors either with malnutrition or at risk for it. The coding helps offset the costs of assessment and treatment.

Long-term care registered dietitians have a diverse role. They are responsible for both clinical documentation and auditing their facility’s kitchen. For example, Taylor is currently inspecting her facility’s high-temperature dish machine.

Wash Temperature: 151°F ✅
Rinse Temperature: 181°F ✅

🌾 Tip: Ensure that your food service department fills out the dish machine log 3x/day prior to washing breakfast, lunch, and dinner trays to guarantee that your dishes and utensils are properly washed and sanitized.

Your Support Requested to Stop Medicare Payment Rate Cuts

Tell Congress: Stop Medicare Payment Cuts

Medicare payment rates continue to face cuts, threatening access to crucial health care services like Medical Nutrition Therapy and reducing reimbursement for RDNs.

These cuts stem from a combination of policy decisions at CMS and congressionally mandated sequestration, exacerbated by the economic strains of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Unless Congress takes action before March 1, the recent 3.37% cut that went into effect on January 1 will become permanent.

Take action today and urge your members of Congress to stop the 3.37% cut to Medicare Part B Payments. Please share the public action alert with your networks.

Academy Members: Take Action Here: https://www.eatrightpro.org/action-center?vvsrc=%2fCampaigns%2f112034%2fRespond

the primary qualification for the Director of Food & Nutrition Services in the absence of a full-time Dietitian in long-term care settings. We are happy to work alongside you!
