Re: peanut butter in nursing homes/oatmeal on puree

[Guest guest]

Totally agree with no pb. It can't be suctioned out, in a manner that perserves

life.

What does everyone think about oatmeal on a puree?

Help with policy on peanut butter in nursing homes

State is in to my long term care facility and they would like to see our policy

on peanut butter usage. Does any one have one?

I have some philisophical differences with the DSM there so an outside opinion

would be helpful.

I do serve oatmeal and have not learned of any major problems. If there are any

contraindications it's indicated on individual tray cards not to serve it.
