Special Diets

Special Diets provide the opportunity to enter individual diet type preferences for a Resident.  Special Diets can be included in various reports such as Meal Order Forms, Drinks Lists and Tray Tags.

The Special Diets field is found on the Dietary Information tab of a Resident's profile.

In addition, there are three Special Diets that affect Order Forms.  These are shown in red, and listed below:

1. C-Coeliac  - this special diet will restrict any recipes with ingredients that contain Gluten (in wheat, oats, rye and barley) as an allergen.
2. DF-Dairy Free - this special diet will restrict any recipes with ingredients that contain Animal milk as an allergen.
