Significant unintended changes in weight (loss or gain) or insidious weight loss (gradual unintended loss over a period of time) may indicate a nutritional problem. 1. The facility will utilize a systemic approach to optimize a resident's nutritional status. This process includes: a. Identifying and assessing each resident's nutritional status and risk factors . c. Developing and consistently implementing pertinent approaches. d. Monitoring the effectiveness of interventions and revising them as necessary . 4.

A weight monitoring schedule will be developed upon admission for all residents . c. Residents with weight loss-monitor weight weekly . 6. Weight Analysis: The newly recorded weight should be compared to the previous weight. A significant change in weight is defined as: a. 5% weight change in 1 month (30 days), b. 7.5% weight change in 3 months (90 days) . 7. Documentation: a. The physician should be informed of a significant change in weight and may order nutritional interventions . e.
