Meal-Preparation & Cooking
At CareBridge Healthcare, meal preparation and cooking services entail having a caregiver come to your house and prepare and cook food according to your diet plan. Our caregivers may also help clients design a meal plan that takes into account all of their dietary requirements, as well as handle activities like grocery shopping and cleaning. Seniors often have a say in how much planning, preparing and cooking they want to do.
Our Meal Preparation Services
Our meal preparation service takes into account the demands of each client and includes the following:
- Making a food plan: Working with elders allows us to build meal plans that they will like while also ensuring that their meals meet their dietary requirements.
- Grocery Shopping: We can take care of the chore of strolling around grocery stores and holding possibly heavy products when we go grocery shopping.
- Cooking food: We may either prepare food to cook right away or get items ready for later. Our team might also prepare nutritious snack items in advance for elders. Cutting vegetables and fruit, for example, or portioning crackers and cheese into individual containers.
- Cooking or reheating meals: We take care of this as part of our meal preparation service because cooking may be risky for elders. Of course, we work alongside elders in the kitchen when they wish to help prepare their own meals.
- Dishwashing: Washing dishes or loading a dishwasher can be physically demanding for seniors, and they run the danger of shattering glass or ceramics. After preparing and cooking meals, we take care of this.
- Cleaning and disinfecting the kitchen: In order to protect elders from food-borne infections, we thoroughly clean and disinfect their kitchen before the next meal.
