Food and Nutrition Services
Proper nutrition can be as crucial to your health as the right therapy or medication. In fact, food can play such an important role in your recovery that your diet is personally prescribed by your physician and carefully planned by a registered dietitian. All patients receive a menu listing several approved selections for breakfast, lunch and dinner.
Sherman Oaks Hospital is committed to providing excellent, patient-focused nutritional care to all patients by a comprehensive staff of registered and licensed dietitians and dietetic technicians who provide nutritional screenings, assessments and education based on the established patient care plan. The Dietitians are part of the Interdisciplinary Medical team and take part in daily rounds and provide nutritional recommendations to the medical staff as well as ongoing nutrition education to both the patients and the hospital staff.
