I work in a detox/recovery residential tx center. I have been giving the task of developing a monthly menu for our residential clients. My boss mention something about it needs to follow state guidelines. Does anyone know where I might be able to find out what the guidelines are for California. I did a Google search but I keep coming up with childcare center and eating disorder center guidelines. Is it something different for adult residential treatment? 0 Likes
