What time does dinner need to be served?

  1. No earlier than 4pm

  2. No earlier than 5pm

  3. No earlier than 6pm

  4. No earlier than 7pm

The correct answer is: No earlier than 5pm

In a nursing home setting, dinner should typically be served no earlier than 5pm. This time allows residents an appropriate amount of time after lunch to build up an appetite for dinner. Serving dinner too early may result in residents feeling hungry later in the evening. Additionally, serving dinner too late may interfere with residents' bedtime routines and digestion. Therefore, the correct answer is B. The other options are incorrect because they suggest serving dinner either too early (A) or too late (C and D).
