looking for information about correctly recording the intake of residents.
we have been including in our intake:
--- liquids - water, juice, coffee, tea, milk, soda, broth;
--- foods that are liquid at room temperature - ice cream, sherbet, popsicles;
--- foods such as gelatin desserts (like jell-o), puddings, liquids that we have added a thickening powder, and 'magic cups'.
"jane" has told the cnas that applesauce and other pureed fruits should be included when recording the resident's intake.
was pureed fruit many years ago included in intake or was pureed fruit added to intake in the last several years and i missed the change/update information?
i have searched the web, didn't find anything that read to include pureed fruit, but then again did not find anything that read not to include pureed fruit.
when recording of intake amounts, are pureed fruits included or not included?
your feedback would be appreciated.
