Your Menu
During your hospital stay, your doctor will prescribe a diet most suited to your nutritional needs. All meals are based on Canada’s Food Guide to Healthy Eating and your diet requirements. Should you have any special needs or concerns regarding your diet or meals, please speak with your nurse.
All menus are developed by a team of Registered Dietitians and the Food Service Supervisor. The menus are planned to ensure that they meet the nutritional requirements for each diet. The development of the menu involves extensive taste testing with patients and hospital staff to ensure all menu items meet our standards for quality and acceptability.
Meal Delivery Times
Meals are delivered to the rooms as follows:
Breakfast 7:50 a.m. to 8:00 a.m.
Lunch 11:35 a.m. to 11:45 a.m.
Supper 4:45 p.m. to 5:00 p.m.
In addition, snacks are always available on each nursing unit for patients. Snacks include juice, milk, crackers, bread, peanut butter, and ice cream.
Please contact a member of your health care team if you have any questions or concerns.
