  • Is the resident assisted (with meal setup and eating), cued, and encouraged to eat as needed?  

  • Are assistive devices utilized and used correctly (e.g., plate guard, lipped plate or bowl, modified utensils, sippy cups, nosey cups, cues, hand over hand)? 

  • If the resident refuses or isn’t eating (e.g., pacing), what does staff do? Do they offer substitutes, encourage or assist the resident? 

  • Does the resident’s physical appearance indicate the potential for an altered nutritional status (e.g., cachectic)? 

  • Are supplements provided at times that don’t interfere with meal intake and consumed (e.g., supplement given right before or during the meal and the resident doesn’t eat)? 

  • Are snacks given and consumed?
