Attributes of Community Dining Program The dining service program will provide a variety of dining venues,
services and menu selection for all community constituencies. The dining service program will expand and enhance its offerings
while remaining consistent with established traditions, ministry and mission.
The program must accommodate current constituency expectations and traditions while providing for anticipated expanding community requirements.
The program will identify skill sets required for service delivery to initiate transition training and identify appropriate personnel.
The dining experience will be developed with consideration to: a seamless service regardless of level of care, a singular community service, measurable key success indicators, fully leveraged efficiencies, creation of a signature service brand for community.

Choice Is The Way We Live
“Some facilities studied, usually the lower turn-over ones, were in the process of thinking about how to increase individualized care. For example, the researcher asked, what are you doing if anything about resident choice. ‘We are looking at it. Ideally, we want them to eat when they want. We encourage them to tell us what care they want, a shower or bath, or to get up when they want.”

Quality of Living ConsiderationsA large proportion of nursing home residents are malnourished
and up to half are substandard in body weight, leading to serious consequences including infections, hip fractures, and even death. The environment in which residents eat and the degree to which residents may choose when and what to eat can affect residents’ health (malnutrition and dehydration) and quality of life (perceived safety, enjoyment, social relationships, individuality, autonomy, choice).

The System – Individual Preparation, Bulk Service Prepare Individual Menu Items For Storage Place On A Tray For Transport To Feeding Area Transport and Leave In Cart Distribute and Unwrap At Scheduled Meal Time
The Alternative – Bulk Preparation, Individual Service Prepare Menu Items In Bulk Transport To Dining Room Servery Plate Individually and Serve Upon Request

Rhythms of Daily LivingRhythms of Daily LivingThe core of RDL is the opportunity to exercise choice –
residents’ for how they choose to live their day and staff choice for care delivery. This creates a collaborative coalition of residents and caregivers working together in a living environment. RDL facilitates the delivery of care, the experience of living and the dignity of self-determination.
RDL is a management principle that aligns the natural rhythms of residents and the support they need. The organizing principle of RDL is that people should be able to make meaningful choices in their daily lives – on their own or with assistance. RDL relies on caregivers to help define and achieve outcomes that balance individual choice and system efficiency.

Balancing the Natural Rhythms of Resident Living and Care Work A “More Normal” Pattern of Living and Work
Residents Eat What And When They Want Over A Longer Meal Service Pre-Meal Medications, Bathing and Other Activities Are Less Pressured Staff Provides Assistance As Required
24 Minutes Is Average Optimal Feeding Assistance Time With A Range From 5 To 70 Minutes Depending On ADL Status*
48% Of Nursing Home Population Require Some Degree of Assistance* A Dining Experience, Not A Feeding Period
Shift Dining Service Focus From Trays To Residents and Quality Collaborative Service Support Aroma Therapy Course Presentation Minimal Distraction Environment

The ROI Of A Dining ExperienceBuilding “Experience Equity”
Dining establishes the daily quality of life for all members of a senior living community. The culture defined by the dining experience resonates with and dictates that of the entire community. The dignity and joy of making self-determined choices are at the core of any good dining experience.

STAGES of RDL Readiness GAP Analysis
Establish clear understanding among all constituents of program impact on 6 principle areas. Culinary Capacity
Establish a servery on the resident floor Individualized Service
Establish a service program without the tray system. Meals are plated when the resident is ready. Choice is based on pre-ordered menu items, however time of service is not flexible.
Point of Service Menu Choice Establish the opportunity for the resident to choose alternate items from a menu during meal service.
Schedule Choice I[1] Establish the opportunity for residents who are self-sufficient and independent to dine at a time of their
choosing, within established service times. Schedule Choice II
Establish the opportunity for residents who require assistance with dining but are able to determine when they would like to dine to do so within established service times.
7. Venue Choice (If Appropriate) Establish the opportunity for residents to choose alternate places to dine.
[1] Schedule choice is the last and most difficult stage to implement because it affects the scheduling of all resident activities from bathing to medication and activities.
April 20, 2005 LSNI Annual Convention- 2005 21
Assessment Points for RDL ImplementationStages are defined against the requirements of: Administration: fiscal, management and leadership
considerations Regulatory: compliance criteria (grouped by clinical and
operational considerations) Systems: software programs, forms, policy & procedures,
protocols Personnel: staffing requirements, training, HR. The impact
on each care disciplines is identified by department PP&E: Property, Plant & Equipment necessary to perform
the tasks and functions Community: Communications, Resident & Family
education; community collaboration

STRATEGIC OBJECTIVES – TACTICAL IMPLEMENTATION PROJECT MAPPINGAs dining options and program enhancements are discussed, specific initiatives are defined and envisioned by department management and staff. These new “dining experiences" require a specific definition process from concept to strategic alignment to tactical implementation.
Executive and Board leadership must clearly identify specific strategic organizational considerations. Leadership must clearly define their expectation and measurement of a successful contribution to the community strategic vision.

Comparison of CulturePioneer Network
Institution-Directed Culture Staff provide standard
“treatments” based on clinical Institutional defined schedule and
routines – resident comply Work is task oriented and staff
rotates assignments – interchangeable residents
Centralized decision making Hospital environment Structured activities There is a sense of isolation and
loneliness
Choice – Directed Culture Staff enters into a care giving
relationship based upon individualized care & resident desire
Residents and staff design the schedules
Care is relationship-centered, consistent assignments
Frontline decision making Environment reflects the comforts
of home Spontaneous activities Sense of community and
belonging

A Culture of Caring vs. a Culture of CuringThere is a significant difference between these two
cultures. A culture of curing, the medical model, requires workmanship of certainty – specific, objective, regimented procedures to achieve a specific outcome. A culture of caring, the LTC model, requires workmanship of risk – the collaborative relationship to create a quality of living experience that is subjective and defined by the resident and care provider at the moment of service.
