Our work in the health sector

We supply healthy, nutritionally balanced meals to hospital patients in the UK

Hospital food is an essential part of patient care. Good food can encourage patients to eat well and give them the nutrients they need to recover from surgery or illness.

In fact, patients who receive good nutrition may have shorter hospital stays, fewer post-operative complications, reduces re-admissions and less need for drugs and other interventions – so it makes sense for healthcare providers to ensure the food they are serving their patients is of good quality and packed full of great nutrition.

The problem is, caterers and nutritionists are seeing more of their patients entering healthcare facilities in a malnourished state. Studies show that up to 40% of hospital patients are malnourished on admission, which means they have not been eating well enough to keep themselves healthy. Even just a few days of eating good meals can make a big difference for these patients – and The Healthy Food Company is committed to helping these individuals improve their overall health with tasty, wholesome, freshly prepared food that has been tailored to meet their unique dietary requirements.
