In the Fall of 2011, Pioneer Network submitted the new Dining Practice Standards to CMS, FDA, CDC and the long-term care community at large. It is anticipated that CMS will refer to these new agreed-upon standards of practice within long term care interpretive guidance. It is the goal of the Task Force that surveyors, clinicians and interdisciplinary team members will put these new standards into practice in order to continue their efforts to improve quality of life for those living in nursing homes across the country. Come learn more about the Dining Standards and what they mean to you.
