I'm visiting a patient with cerebral palsy tomorrow. He lives in a group home with aides helping him into electric wheelchair, bathing, etc. Meals are also provided for him. I just read a nursing note from last week that discusses how upset the pt is at his diet being restricted, per dr recommendation, specifically mentioning portions. Does anyone know if this is legal? He is an adult. The DRs would love all of us to follow certain diets, but we ultimately decide what we eat.
