We know that proper nutrition is key to health, comfort, and overall well-being, especially for our residents in skilled nursing. That’s why we create personalized nutrition plans tailored to each individual’s needs, preferences, and medical requirements.

With a personalized nutrition plan, residents benefit from:
• Meals designed for specific dietary needs such as heart-healthy, diabetic-friendly, or soft diets
• Support for appetite changes and challenges with eating or swallowing
• Balanced, nourishing meals to support strength, energy, and recovery
• Guidance from our compassionate care team to ensure each resident’s preferences are respected

We believe nutrition is more than just food, it’s a vital part of personalized care that supports comfort, independence, and quality of life.
