Patient/caregiver guidance when ByHeart formula was used:

Do not use any ByHeart Whole Nutrition infant formula. This includes formula sold in cans and single serve packets.
If possible, take a picture or record the lot number and best by date.
If you have leftover ByHeart powdered formula, label it "DO NOT USE" and keep it stored in a safe place for at least a month.
If your infant develops symptoms of infant botulism, your state health department may want to collect it for testing. If no symptoms appear after a month, throw the leftover formula away.
Monitor for symptoms of botulism such as poor feeding, loss of head control, difficulty swallowing, or decreased facial expression, seek medical care immediately if symptoms appear. Early intervention is critical.
Wash items and surfaces that may have touched the formula using hot soapy water or a dishwasher.

Dear CACFP Community,

As the federal shutdown continues, we are committed to keeping our community informed with timely updates.
NCA has confirmed with USDA that funds were released to State agencies to cover all reimbursement and cash-in-lieu claims for meals served in October and November.

Funds should be disbursed to operators in November and December as usual.
