Modifying an Existing Diet Intervention

To modify an existing diet intervention.

1. From the left navigation sidebar, select Tools & Setup > Diet Orders. The Diet Order Setting screen appears.
    
2. Select the Interventions tab. The Interventions screen appears, listing existing interventions.
    
3. Click the name of the intervention to edit. The Intervention slide-out panel appears. 
    
4. In the Valid For section, from the available diet type/texture type grid (screenshot below), assign/unassign the diet orders (i.e., diet type and texture type combinations) as needed for the diet intervention. When doing so, note the following:
   • Do not select a diet type that is contradictory to the purpose of the intervention. For example, if you have a “Low Sodium” diet intervention, then it would be contradictory to apply it to the "No Added Salt" diet type because that diet type exists to support recipes with no added salt (via a recipe's diet order extension grid). As another example, if you have a “No Pork or Beef” diet intervention, then it would be contradictory to apply it to the "Vegetarian" diet type because that diet type exists to support recipes with no meat (via a recipe's diet order extension grid).
   • The regular diet type/regular texture type is selected by default.
   • You can select a whole diet type row or a whole texture type column by clicking the respective header.
   • If a diet/texture combination square is grey, it indicates that that diet/texture combination is not published in your account. However, you can still select the combination to be included in the menu report by clicking the square.
     • If the text is white, it indicates the diet/texture combination is selected. 
     • If the text is black, it indicates the diet/texture combination is not selected.
       
       
        
5. If needing to add a customization to the diet intervention, refer to the appropriate instructions from the separate Creating an Intervention article. 
   • Adding a Personal Menu Item to a Diet Intervention
   • Adding a Fallback Substitute to a Diet Intervention
   • Adding Serving Size Adjustment to a Diet Intervention
   • Adding a "Do Not Serve" Customization to a Diet Intervention
      
6. If needing to edit an existing customization, first scroll to and expand the Customization section. For the customization to be edited, click its ellipsis and select Edit (first screenshot below). A pop-up window specific to the customization appears for you to make your edits (second screenshot below shows the Edit Serving Size Adjustment pop-up). 
   
   
   
   
    
7. If needing to delete an existing customization, first scroll to and expand the Customization section. For the customization to be deleted, click its ellipsis and select Delete (first screenshot below). Click Delete to the confirmation message that appears (second screenshot below).
   
   
   
   
    
8. After making your changes, click Save at the top right of the panel.
   • If the intervention was modified to remove a diet/texture type combination, and the intervention is currently assigned to one or more resident/patient profiles who also is assigned the same diet/texture type combination, then the following message appears stating that you cannot modify the intervention until you first unassign the intervention from the affected profiles.
     
     
      
   • If the intervention was modified to add a customization, or edit or delete an existing customization, and the intervention is currently assigned to one or more resident/patient profiles, the following message appears stating that the intervention will be updated for those people profiles. You have the option of cancelling the modification or proceeding.
