Synopsis

Meal time is an opportunity for residents to experience good "Quality of Life" in their "home", while they interact with each other and with the staff. These monitoring tools will help the staff gauge whether the residents are having a great meal time experience, a good meal time experience, or a not so good meal time experience. When surveyors come to your facility this is one of the important aspects of care they observe. These tools will help you before the surveyors walk through your doors.
