History of compliance

Because of this risk, a patient s ability to comply with the dietary restrictions should be carefully evaluated before starting treatment. Hospitalized patients should be placed on a tyramine-free diet and outpatients should be questioned about their history of compliance, suicidal potential, and ability to comprehend the dietary restrictions, which should be given in writing. Patients who cannot follow directions accurately or who may be manipulative or suicidal should not be considered for treatment with MAOIs. 

Analysis Step 1 GH is a controlling employer because it has general supervisory authority over the worksite, including contractual authority to correct safety and health violations. Step 2 GH has taken reasonable steps to try to make sure that S meets safety and health requirements. Its inspection frequency is appropriate in light of the low number of workers at the site, lack of significant changes in the nature of the work and types of hazards involved, GH s knowledge of S s history of compliance and its effective safety and health efforts on this job. GH has exercised reasonable care and is not citable for this condition.
