Patients’ nutrition well catered for

Hospital food and nutrition is recognised as an important part of the holistic care provided at St John of God Frankston Rehabilitation Hospital.

The catering team is very proud of its reputation for providing delicious and nutritious home-style comfort meals.  Highly trained and experienced chefs, supported by the catering team, cook fresh and plate-hot.  Meals produced reflect the catering team’s passion for food and commitment to patient care.  All meals are cooked daily, and this includes freshly baked scones, cakes or biscuits that are served for morning and afternoon tea.

The hospital’s catering manager/head chef, together with the dietitians and speech pathologists, develop and review menus that meet each patient’s needs and dietary requirements. Menu monitors are available to assist patients with making the correct selection of food for specialised diets, or completing menu forms if assistance is required.

Patient feedback such as this confirms the hospital’s commitment to meeting and exceeding patients’ expectations: “I commend every aspect of your catering service – you have an excellent standard. I can tell your meals are so fresh and prepared with pride in your work. The variety is amazing and you have achieved the best quality.”
