Answer to Question 1

Most hospitals provide selective menus from which patients can select their meals. The use of selective menus allows patients to choose foods they prefer and are most likely to eat. If a patient is following a modified diet, the menu includes only foods that are permitted on that diet. An advantage of this system is that patients following modified diets can become familiar with the foods permitted on their particular diet. To improve patient satisfaction with foodservice as well as patients' perceptions of their overall hospital experience, many hospitals are moving toward a room service, cook-to-order system similar to what an individual might experience in a hotel. In these facilities, the menus list more food choices than usual and include more fresh foods, seasonal ingredients, and local specialties. Entres are prepared as they are ordered, and food delivery hours are expanded to better accommodate patients' varied schedules.
