The Kettering Health Culinary Care team has been hard at work revamping the patient menus for all medical centers, a goal they’ve had since supply and staffing shortages during the COVID-19 pandemic led to limited meal choices. 

The new menu focuses on fresh foods made in-house and provides more options for those with dietary restrictions. More seasonal options will be available as well. 

For the Culinary Care team, preparing a meal is an opportunity to provide a healthy and positive experience for patients. 

“We’re doing it for our community, our family,” said Lashelle Rice, cook and baker at Kettering Health Hamilton food services 

Favorites like the roast beef hot shot are back on the menu, along with other popular items such as a salmon stir fry and a new house-made cheesecake.
