All of it: the words, the place, the proof
No honesty-limit caveat needed: confirmed directly from PubMed's own record (via NCBI eutils, PMID 31009050) that Seth A. Berkowitz, first author of this standard's own foundational citation (Berkowitz et al. 2019, 'Association Between Receipt of a Medically Tailored Meal Program and Health Care Use,' JAMA Intern Med), is affiliated with the Division of General Medicine and Clinical Epidemiology, Department of Medicine, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill School of Medicine — a direct, named-author-institution match sourced from the paper's own PubMed record. The evidence for 'food as medicine' is not aspirational: a matched cohort of medically tailored meal recipients had significantly fewer hospital and skilled-nursing admissions and lower medical spending than non-recipients (Berkowitz 2019). Distinct from the existing LA County (a large diverse metro deployment context), national (generic telehealth-coordinated framing), and Chicago (AMA, the citation's own journal publisher) tiles — Chapel Hill is this standard's own foundational citation's first author's institution, a fourth distinct category.

How this work is done
How this work is done
A documented method, so this packet comes out the same whoever does it.
Bring
- a copy of the clinician's or dietitian's written diet order (condition, key restrictions, date issued) confirmed BEFORE cooking
- ingredients and cookware to prepare the specific meal that meets the order (e.g. sodium content, texture modification, carbohydrate count as named)
- a delivery container and a simple log (date, meal, how it matches the order, duration shared, what was shared)
- the 988 Suicide and Crisis Lifeline number, the 211 referral line, and — depending on setting — the state Long-Term Care Ombudsman Program or Adult Protective Services line, printed for reference
Steps
- 1. Confirm the diet order directly before cooking: who wrote it, what condition or restriction it names, and the date it was issued. If there is no current written order, or it is unclear or expired, do not proceed — route back to the person's own clinician or dietitian for a current order.
- 2. Prepare the meal to match the order exactly — never substitute an ingredient, adjust a restriction, or add something the order does not call for, even if the person asks for something different.
- 3. Deliver the meal to the person's own home or care-home room at the agreed time.
- 4. Share the meal as company: sit and eat with, or alongside, the person, with unhurried conversation they lead.
- 5. NEVER place food or utensils directly in the person's mouth — if they cannot self-feed, or show any coughing, choking, or swallowing difficulty, stop and route to their own clinician or a trained feeding-assistance program immediately.
- 6. Log the visit (how the meal matched the order, duration, what was shared) and route anything not the cook's own to handle per the decision rules.
What counts as done
- The diet order confirmed: who wrote it (clinician or dietitian), the condition/restriction it names, and the date it was issued — no order, no packet
- The meal prepared logged with how it matches the order (e.g. sodium content for a low-sodium order, texture for a modified-texture order)
- The meal delivered and shared as company, with duration and what was shared logged in the person's own words where possible
- Every decision-rule red flag recorded as absent or routed as the rule says
Proof is measured against these, not judged by taste.
What is promised, and what is not
Three separate acts, never one: a vote is a free signed preference that moves no money; a pledge is free signed backing intent, balance-checked, that moves no money and never marks the packet funded; funding is a real payment that backs the wage. Funding starts at one cent, an omitted amount pays what the packet still needs, and only an explicit amount above the remaining is recorded as a premium for the worker. Money settles only on accepted proof. An agent can fund it in one x402 call: POST /nurture/fund {"workId":"WORK_1788978751708_15cau0y","funderWallet":"0xYOU"}.
Claiming is free. You sign to prove the wallet is yours: no card, no deposit, no fee. Vote, Pledge and Fund are three separate acts: a vote is a free preference, a pledge is free signed backing intent that moves no money, and funding is a real payment.
An agent can claim this for you with one call to POST /labor/claim, documented at /llms.txt.
Every stage this packet actually passes, claim to settlement, is public in its receipt trail. A stage that has not happened is not claimed.
Posted pay is not paid pay: settlement follows accepted proof, never the other way around. Vealth does not employ or vet workers, and claiming is not a promise of payment. See how proof and receipts work.
Other acts: vote, pledge, fund
