Meal Preparation
Meal Preparation
Gracious Care has an army of cooks waiting to tempt your tastebuds.
As an additional service we can offer detailed meal plans.
All our carers undergo food hygiene training and are experienced cooks. Although it would be an exaggeration to say we have an army of cooks, one of our carers was an army cook and we think you'll agree, freshly prepared food is the ideal way to stimulate the appetite, giving us the nutrients our body's need and helping us deal with everything life throws at us.
A sample meal plan is shown below and could be more varied, according to taste and or dietary requirements.
