Hospital Emergency Food Supply Planning Guidance and Toolkit

The toolkit was developed to provide guidance  to hospitals in planning for and documenting emergency food supplies as mandated by regulatory requirements. These resources were developed for use by hospital Food Services directors and/or hospital dietitians. Hospital Emergency planners should also review and become familiar with these documents for joint planning purposes.

* The Emergency Food Calculation Tool is fully functional as posted, and no passwords are required to use the form. However, if users attempt data entry within a (blue) calculation cell, a password required message will appear. These cells are purposefully locked to prevent users from overriding the formulas that drive the tool. Users should only enter values into pink cells. Blue cells cannot be edited.
