Nutrition
& Food Services
Patient Food Service
Eating well is an important part of recovery. Nutritious meals are provided to inpatients using “hostess-style” service. Patients are asked about their food choice immediately prior to meal service. Patients are given a choice of a complete hot meal or can substitute a cold item for the main course. Your physician may order a special diet while you are in the hospital which may limit some of your food or beverage options.
Cafeteria Service
The cafeteria is open for morning coffee break and lunch Monday through Friday. Complete meals, snacks and beverages are available from the food merchandisers (vending) 24 hours a day.
Listowel Hours: Monday to Friday: 11:30 am – 1:00 pm
Wingham Hours: Monday to Friday: 11:45 am – 1:15 pm
