FOOD SERVICE

Patient Meals
Nourishing and well-balanced meals are an important part of your treatment and recovery. WNH makes every effort to provide nutritious meals that are prepared according to your doctor's orders.

Approximate serving times are:

Breakfast - 7 a.m.
Lunch - Noon
Dinner - 5 p.m.

Occasionally your meal may be delayed if you are scheduled for a special test or treatment. If approved by your physician, you will be served after your examination or test.

Your breakfast tray will include a menu from which you can order your meals for the next day. Please mark your menu so it will be ready for pickup. If you have difficulty making menu selections, a member of the nursing staff will be happy assist. If you are on a special diet prescribed by your doctor, you will receive menus tailored to your specific needs. You can contact the dietitian by notifying your nurse or by calling extension 129.

Cafeteria
The WNH cafeteria is open Monday - Friday from 11 a.m. until 1 p.m. and 5:15 p.m. - 6:15 p.m. On weekends a salad bar only will be served from 11 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. The cafeteria is closed weekend evenings. While it is primarily designed to serve hospital employees, visitors are welcome to eat in the cafeteria any time it is open.

Guest Meals
If a family member or friend would like to eat in your room with you, the person may go to the cafeteria, buy a meal there and take it back to your room. If your guest prefers, you may notify the nursing staff at least two hours in advance of mealtime and a guest meal tray can be delivered to your room.
