During your stay
We will provide you with three meals a day. We can also provide lunch box snacks if you have missed a meal.
We operate protected mealtimes in all of our adult wards. At set times throughout the day, all non-urgent clinical activity stops to help patients eat their meals in a calm atmosphere.
- Breakfast: 8.00am to 9.00am
- Lunch: 11.30am to 1.00pm
- Dinner: 5.00pm to 6.00pm
Breakfast
Breakfast is provided to you from the ward kitchen and includes porridge, a selection of breakfast cereals, toast, tea and coffee.
Lunch and evening meal
Each evening you will be given a menu for the following day’s lunch and evening meal. Please read the menu carefully and follow the instructions on how to select the dishes you want. There is an option on the menu for you to select a small portion if you prefer.
Please note
Meals are ordered the day before so if you have just been admitted onto the ward your first day’s meals may have been ordered by the previous patient. If the meal you receive on your first day is not suitable then please inform your named nurse.
