Food and Nutrition While in the Hospital

Room Service

Inpatient meal service is a Room Service style meal delivery program. Patients may select from menus that offer a variety of healthy, made-to-order food options that are compliant with the patient's diet prescription.

The Room Service Call Center is open 6:30 a.m. - 10:30 p.m. Patients and guests can call to place their meal order. Meal trays are delivered within 60 minutes of your call. Orders can also be placed in advance for a pre-set delivery time on behalf of the patient.

Guest Meals

Guests of patients may order Room Service Guest Trays for a fee. These meals are billed directly to the patient's hospital account. Please note that most insurance companies do not cover the cost of this meal.
