Hello,
Can someone from MD point me to where I can find the regulations that say how
frequently a resident's chart has to be reviewed by the Dietician. We have recently
hired a new Dietician and she is changing how things are done. She is saying that she
only needs to review the charts for the new admissions, significant changes, and
annuals. Our previous dietician reviewed charts quarterly. The chart reviews have
now been delegated to our CDM. Is this standard practice?
