Who evaluates the resident regarding the suitability to be fed and hydrated by a feeding assistant?

Attending physician
Dietary supervisor
Interdisciplinary team
Nursing supervisor

The correct answer is: Attending physician

The attending physician is responsible for evaluating the resident's condition and determining if they are suitable to be fed and hydrated by a feeding assistant. The dietary supervisor may oversee the feeding assistant's tasks and may provide recommendations, but they are not responsible for evaluating the resident's condition. The interdisciplinary team may discuss the resident's care plan, but ultimately it is the attending physician who makes the final decision. The nursing supervisor may also oversee the resident's care, but they do not have the expertise or authority to determine if a resident can be fed and hydrated by a feeding assistant.
