A Person Centred Approach To Food
When you come to Stratton Court Care Home, you are met with a senior member of the nursing team or Emma for a thorough assessment.
This is where they discuss your dietary needs and medical history, to ensure that all nutritional needs are understood and met.
A member of our kitchen team will then sit with you to learn your likes and dislikes, as well as your favourite foods and drinks.
This provides them a broad spectrum of ideas for a daily menu which will not just satisfy, but delight you, while making sure that you feel at home and settled from the moment you arrive at Stratton Court.
Nutritious & Delicious
Food at a Care Home often conjures up images of overcooked boiled vegetables, dry and tough meat with a soggy potato on the side, but at Stratton Court Care Home, we approach food a bit differently.
