indicated. The physician and staff will closely monitor residents who have been identified as having
impaired nutrition or risk for developing impaired nutrition. Such monitoring may include: evaluating the care
plan to determine if the interventions are being implemented and whether they are effective and evaluating
the resident's response to interventions for example, food/fluid intakes.
