Question 1EasyLevel 1
Food safety is related to what?
Correct answer: C
Food safety includes practices that prevent food from becoming contaminated by harmful microorganisms, chemicals, foreign materials, or allergens. Safe purchasing, storage, preparation, cooking, serving, and hand hygiene reduce the risk of foodborne infection and poisoning. This is especially important for ill or vulnerable patients. Therefore, protecting food from contamination and infection is correct.
Why is giving fresh food considered better for a patient?
Correct answer: A
Freshly prepared food is generally more acceptable in taste and texture and, when handled hygienically, may reduce the chance of contamination caused by prolonged storage. It can encourage a patient to eat enough energy and nutrients. Freshness does not replace proper cooking, refrigeration, or safe handling.
