Each night, the new menus would be delivered to the nursing floors to be distributed by the

nursing staff during their nightly or morning rounds. Patients would then call down to our call

center between certain specified meal order times and order their food directly. We believe that

this will increase patient satisfaction as they are allowed to order according to their appetite at

the time. This is particularly important for patients whose appetite may be affe

physical condition or any medications they are taking. Patients who are unable to order due to

their mental condition will have a standard tray made, consisting of the main entrée option with a

drink and side appropriate for any dietary r

Alzheimer’s or similar conditions that decrease the patient’s capacity to chew will not be offered

the fruit salad, which contains grapes, or patients with lactose intolerance will not be offered

milk.

Once the order is taken, it will be electronically passed to the cooking staff who will

make the tray for the patient, place it in a cart, and transport it to the patient. Our goal is to keep

the time from order to delivery under 45 minutes. The cooperation of

importance in this operation and so special training meetings would be set in place to ensure that

the nursing staff is on board.

The menu itself consists of a main entrée option for each meal, as well as an alternative

option of a daily special sandwich for lunch and a daily special soup for dinner. For breakfast,

patients have the option of ordering the main entrée or ordering one of the staple items served

every day (cheesy scrambled eggs, cereal, and toast). Patients als

dinner. A specialty cookie can be ordered for lunch and a specialty dessert can be ordered with

dinner. The dessert served with dinner can also be exchanged for ice cream. Finally, snacks will

be available throughout the day on the nursing floors. It would be up to the nursing staff to get

these snacks for their patients once each floor is stocked by the kitchen staff. It is impo
