When CMS (Medicare) established the requirement that the FSD of a nursing home or long-term care facility had to be certified, they specifically mentioned as one of only 2, “IFSEA’s CFM.” So, we’ve certified 2700 as of Feb 2026, one a day now. CFM covers the standard knowledge needed like food safety, HACCP, nutrition, customer service, management, costs, but with an emphasis on caring for old, sick, immune deficient residents. The test picks 80 questions from a databank of 100. Half the people fail the first time, we send a note suggesting mostly that they need to actually study, and 99% pass on the 2nd try. Easy but you need to know the cooking temp for chicken (duh) and some is OUR training like when you should ask the guest if their food is good.
For 10 or more reach out for special pricing.
