• Patients can choose from a variety of items that include vegetarian choices. Breakfast options include a full English breakfast. Lunch is the main meal of the day in the form of a 3-course meal. Supper is a 2-course meal.
• A selection of special diets are also available. Fluid diets are catered for pre and post-operative procedures. For patients with special digestive requirements, we provide soft and light diets that are easy to chew and easy to digest. Specific disease conditions like diabetes and heart disease are catered for with specific menus that allow the patient to choose the appropriate foods only.
• The hospital kitchen maintains extremely high cleanliness standards in order to provide meals that are safe and hygienic at all times without exception. An independent audit team arrives regularly and unannounced to assess the hygiene standards at the hospital. This assessment includes visual assessment, knowledge checking and micro biological testing.

In order for Fedics to provide the above services at the hospital, a team of competent, caring and dedicated staff are employed. Project Manager Anita Kisson heads the team. Anita is a person who is able to translate the hospital’s needs and requirements into the reality of an efficient service.
