The DM said for today's (07/09/25) lunch meal, she did substitute the cornbread with sliced bread and okra with capri vegetables. The DM said she had to do that because the cornbread box that was delivered appeared as if it was open so it was not usable and it was not replaced in time to serve it with the meal. The DM said as for the okra, it was used for another meal earlier in the week and she did not have enough to serve with lunch today (07/09/25). The DM said the if the kitchen did not serve what was posted on the menu, it could be confusing for residents because it did not match. The DM said the cook posted the menu, but if there were changes that needed to be made, she usually included that in the posted menu so residents knew what they would be served that day. The DM said she expected the menu to match what the residents were being served that day. The DM said all staff had been trained to make sure that the posted menu matched what was being served for that meal that day.Review of the facility's Menus policy, dated May 2014, reflected: .6. Menus are served as written, unless changed in response to preference, unavailability of an item, or a special meal.8.
