Message from the department head
The Food and Nutrition Services Department
welcomes you to the riyadhcare Hospital. Nutrition is an important part of
health care, and our goal is to provide quality food and service throughout
each patient’s stay with us. This means much more than three meals a day. In
addition to delicious and nourishing meals delivered to patients’ rooms, we
offer a variety of services to help our patients regain and maintain their
health.
The Food and Nutrition Services Department staff
includes a number of clinical dietitians – experts especially trained of
nutritional science, health maintenance and patient education. Our dietitians
provide extra nutritional support to those patients who need it most. They are
also available to teach patients about special meal plans and dietary
restrictions. Patients who would like to learn more about their diets may ask
their doctor or nurse to contact our dietitians.
It is a dynamic and evolving department that
encompasses food services, clinical nutrition and patients meal services.
