Weekly Diet Education at Sterling Heights: Accuracy

This week’s engaging diet education session with RDs and dining services at EHM – SH focused on tray accuracy.  After identifying a downward trend in the meal accuracy audits as part of the PI program, the RDs quickly added this topic to their agenda.  Two trays were created by the RDs with many errors (focusing on the mistakes made most often by the team), including incorrectly thickened liquids, missing napkins, missed items from preferences, etc.  The trays were on display for 2 hours, providing adequate time for each shift to review and submit their responses. The meeting was a great re-education for the team and also provided the opportunity for the RDs to explain a more in dept reason, clinically, why some items are a necessity on the tray or at the place setting in dining rooms.
