Service Users individual nutritional, personal and clinical dietary requirements are met, including any necessary help with feeding and access to food 24 hours per day. 2.0 Purpose This document forms part of the systems in place to ensure that the Trust meets the required standards for catering services; it must be read in conjunction with the Food Safety Policy and site specific Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point (HACCP) plans to inform and guide working practices.
