Patient and Guest Dining
Patient Restaurant Style Menus
A "Restaurant Style Meal Menu" will be provided for the patient once a diet has been prescribed by their physician. Our diet aides will assist patients with selecting menu items they will enjoy while following the diet ordered by their physician.
To request a meal:
-
Ask that staff repeat your order back to you to ensure that it is correct
-
Check the order before the food service worker leaves the room
Parent Trays
Parents of children in Community Children's Pediatric Inpatient Unit or Pediatric Intensive Care Unit are eligible to receive one complementary meal per meal period. Tray includes an entrée, side dish, vegetable, dessert and beverage delivered to the patient's room.
Guest Trays
Guest meals are available to friends and family members of a patient when they don't want to leave the room to eat. For $6 (breakfast) or $8 (lunch & dinner), guests can receive an entrée, side dish, vegetable, dessert and beverage delivered to the patient's room. Your order will be delivered to the patient’s room; money will be collected at the time of delivery, cash or check only please.
Room service is available from 6:30 am - 6:30 pm.
Nutritional Recommendations
The hospital employs clinical dietitians who are specially trained to assess our patient’s nutritional needs. Nutrition consultations are based on the initial screening at the time of admittance. If you would like to see a clinical dietitian during your stay, ask your doctor or nurse to request a nutrition consultation.
Food from Home
Food from home can be comforting for patients recovering in our hospital. We encourage families to bring in meals. However, please note we do not have storage for personal food items. We ask that, if you bring food, only plan to bring enough to consume in a single sitting. Storing food in coolers in a patient room is not permitted.
Birthday Program
If a patient's birthday occurs during their stay at our hospital, we will provide a small birthday treat (unless the patient's physician has imposed dietary restrictions that would prevent the hospital from providing this service).
Celebration Dinner
Our celebratory gourmet dinner for two allows you and your loved one to celebrate following birth.
