Patient Meals
Patient meals are served at the times listed below. We may change this schedule to ensure your needs are met and your comfort is assured. Kosher, vegetarian, and a la carte meals are available upon request. Therapeutic diets are served per physician's orders. Patients are encouraged to ask nursing for any special requests.
If your meal isn't warm and appetizing, tell us, and we'll fix that. If the person serving your meal isn't friendly and respectful, we want to know that also. The Dietary Department wants to be part of you having an excellent experience at SGMH.
