Nutrition

Prestwick Care Group prides itself on providing a menu of high quality and nutritious meals to all residents, with all dishes freshly prepared using locally sourced seasonal, and where possible, organic ingredients.

A delicious menu of healthy, nutritious and balanced meals is generally served in our spacious dining rooms, although meals can, at times, be served in-room if preferred. Additional spaces for relaxing and informal dining are also available, such as bars, cafes and a cinema.

Dietician

We work closely with a wide range of healthcare professionals, including dieticians who may be referred to us by a GP. We are happy to include dieticians in discussions when preparing menu plans with residents and their families.

Visitor Meals

We recognise the important role mealtimes play in life, and the increased opportunities for socialising and companionship and encourage residents to dine in our dining rooms.

If residents prefer, family and friends are welcome to dine at our homes if they are visiting for extended periods of time.

Our chefs are happy to cater for visitors, so just let us know when additional meals are required or special dietary requirements of visitors are to be catered for.

Special Occasions

We encourage our residents to celebrate birthdays and other special occasions, recognising the importance of events and gatherings of family and friends, and our chefs would be happy to cater for such special occasions. One of the lounges can be booked to accommodate private social events.

Our menus

Our menus vary throughout the year, providing a range of nutritious and balanced meals to suit all dietary requirements and preferences. Alongside the nutritious menus that we offer in the Care homes we also offer high calorie drinks and shakes in the morning and afternoon for those that require that extra boost. See our sample menus below.
