Which term describes a planned nutrition supplement added to the usual diet?

• A. Telephone Etiquette
• B. Supplemental Feedings
• C. Survey
• D. Tendons

Answer: (B)

Planned nutrition supplements added to the usual diet are called supplemental feedings. In care settings, when a resident isn’t meeting needs from meals alone, staff provide extra nourishment between meals or use fortified foods to help reach calorie and nutrient goals. This term specifically describes adding intentional nutrition on top of regular intake, rather than replacing meals. The other terms relate to completely different concepts: telephone etiquette is about polite phone communication, a survey is a set of questions for gathering information, and tendons are connective tissues in the body.
