About the Diet Census Details Report

The Diet Census Detail report generates a count of each diet order (i.e., diet type/texture type combinations) that is configured for each meal period (breakfast, lunch, dinner) and snack time (AM, PM, HS). Note that diet orders are assigned to residents/patients and any dining areas set up with a manual diet order census.

Note: The report generates a current snapshot of the diet orders selected in the base settings you selected for your production reports. The report does not generate past or historical data. 

Persons Marked Off-Premise (LOA) Not Included in Report

If a person is marked off-premise (i.e., LOA), then that person is not included in the Diet Census Detail Report (Production). When one or more persons is off-premise, the report conveys such info in the Note section at the end of the report, as per screenshot below. 

Selecting Settings to Determine Diet Orders to be in the Production Report

From Production > Production Reports in the left navigation sidebar, select the production report settings to determine the diet orders to be included in the report. These settings include the date range, meal periods, and menu service locations. See the separate article Opening the Production Report Settings for more information and specific instructions.

Specific Report Settings: Diet Census Details Report

After selecting the settings to determine the diet orders to be in the report, then from the left side of the screen select the Diet Census Details option. The Diet Census Details section appears for you to select the report settings.

• Type
  • Consolidated - generates a total summary of the diet orders, not sorted by dining areas.
  • By Dining Area - sorts the diet orders by the dining areas that are associated with the diet orders. Note that if a residence area is enabled as a dining area to allow in-room service for residents, then that residence area will be listed as a dining area on the report.  
     
• Service Type - you can filter the diet orders to be included in the report by service type: Non-select, Advance Ordering, or Tableside Select. The service types are associated with the meal periods selected in the base settings. For example, assume a person is assigned the tableside select service type for dinner. In the base settings for the production reports, you select Dinner, and in the Service Type drop-down for the Diet census Detail report, you select Tableside Select. The report will pull the diet order census from persons assigned that meal period/service type combination.
   
• Fluid Type - generates a summary of the fluid types that are assigned to people.
