Swedish Medical Center Makes Wholesome Meals for Patients with Combi Oven

“Patients are in the hospital to heal. Our goal is to make them do that,” says one health care foodservice director. “If we are feeding them foods that are over processed or foods that are not made from the freshest, most wholesome ingredients, we are really doing them a disservice. We want to heal them, make them well, and send them on their way.”

Hospital foodservice directors recognize the value in healthy, locally sourced ingredients as their responsibility to help treat illnesses. According to the Healthier Hospitals Initiative, the U.S. spends billions of dollars to treat diet-related conditions, such as obesity, diabetes, cardiovascular disease and cancer. More and more hospitals and healthcare clinics are doing their parts to encourage the community around them to adopt healthier lifestyles by offering patients, visitors and staff members fresh, healthier menu items.
