I've been told to look at the National Quality Standards and Education and care services regulations for a question in CHCECE004
What are the food handling requirements outlined ?

I have searched it all day and cant find it

Am I not looking in the right place??

TIA

OK so in the NQS it doesn't exactly say anything specific about food handling procedures exactly however it gives you references so if you have a look here you may be able to find some information:

Food Standards

In regards to the National Regulations it states the following:

77 Health, hygiene and safe food practices

(1) The approved provider of an education and care service must ensure that the nominated supervisor and staff members of, and volunteers at, the service implement—
(a) adequate health and hygiene practices; and
(b) safe practices for handling, preparing and storing food—
to minimise risks to children being educated and cared for by the service.
Penalty: $2000.

Hope this helps!

Hi Lorina

I have question for scenario
E jo the centre cook, likes to run an orderly kitchen and everything has to be in its place. He likes to store
Foods that are the same together. Jo has labeled the shelves in the fridge for each type of food - top shelf for poultry
(Raw and cooked). The shelf below for all meat ( desserts like rice puddings are stored on the next and then fruit and vegetables on the lower self.

The way it can be prevented by ensuring that the foods doesn't get harmful is by-@@
Bacteria where as doesn't grow when they are stored correctly.
Also, the source contamination could be the understanding and reading the food labels which are important
When they are stored. It needs to have room temperature for the foods referigertion. So that when jo
Works . The bacteria doesn't get into another person in foods. That's why
It's good to be stored correctly in the fridge.

Could u check if I'm right plz with the scenario

I think you need to add how to store foods in the fridge correctly... E.g. meat should be stored on the bottom part of the fridge etc.

I'm on the last scenario

Where Kylie it the team leader in a baby section . She feels that it is important that the babies in her section

Have a sleep whenever they need one. If any of the babies are asleep over lunch time she keeps their lunch warm

Until they wake up.

I said I think she needs to warm their food for about 5 to 60 c so that the babies when they are wake .

They don't get caused of food poisoning which is the bacteria

Can u check I'm right plz

Thanx Lorina

I think keeping the food warm for them may cause bacteria growth so you need to keep it at a certain temperature:

Hi

Second one also

Says .

What are three ways to minimise the spread of infection and illness

I said to minimise the spread of infection are by

1 . By keeping hands clean before/after at all the time.

2. By wiping a child nose

3. Going to toilet and changing naps

Therefore, when minimising the three steps it is a good hygiene and that this will control the procedures. As part

Of the routine for everyone in a child care area.

Also , by following these steps , it will reduce the risk of the illness for the children, so that they do not get the illness.

Could u check plz

Thanx Lorina..
