VA can achieve significant savings
through advanced food preparation and advanced food delivery
systems. To determine the level of patient satisfaction and quality
of services provided, the survey is needed to be performed at the
medical centers. The on-going quarterly survey is essential to
providing Nutrition and Food Service personnel with reliable,
timely information on the quality of food and nutritional services
provided to veteran patients.
The following VA forms were
collections under 2900-0227 and are now being collected under
