Education, training and tools for ensuring healthcare frontline food safety

Food technology has been growing at a quick pace, having come under the influence of the twin paradigms of the late 20th century, technology and globalization. As populations keep moving from one part of the world to another in the millions; it is natural that they get influenced by the food behavior of the place to which they move, while also bringing their own influences into it.
It is not just with the itinerant population that food service and movement are paired and associated. They have become more pronounced as businesses in food products move their products to many parts of the world. Food produced in China may find its way to a plate in Chile, and Sri Lanka’s cuisine could be popular in Senegal.
While this kind of movement is inevitable and is part of globalization; it has brought with it the imperative for cleanliness and hygiene. These critical aspects of food should not become a casualty to business interests. It is to ensure hygiene at all stages and levels of the food that is consumed all over the world that global and domestic regulatory agencies have come up with many regulations.
A host of regulationsr
These regulations are meant for implementation at different sources, such as hotels, restaurants, hospitals, public transport which moves millions of people from one part of the globe to another, and in every conceivable locale in which food is produced or consumed.
These are just some of the standards that are in place to help bring about standardization in food production and distribution practices:
o Administrators 483.60 Food & Nutrition Services Standard, specific to F361, which requires the facility to employ sufficient staff with the appropriate competencies and skills set
o 483.60 Food & Nutrition Services Standard processes
o Hospital A-0620 Food and Dietetic Services
o HHA, CMS 3819-F Modernization, Continuous Quality Improvements
o CMS Quality Indicator Process for Assistant Living Homes.
