At Sunrise of Northgate, we recognize that diet is one of the most important aspects of a senior’s life. We focus on preparing delicious, well-balanced, home-cooked meals prepared from scratch each day that support the unique nutritional needs of seniors. Our highly trained chefs use top-quality ingredients, herbs and spices, as well as many local and fresh ingredients, and talk regularly with our residents to learn what menu items they would like featured in the community. We also take pride in our table-service dining rooms that encourage social interaction and nurture friendships. Table-service enables the resident to place their meal order with a caregiver, and when that order is sent through the table-service dining system, it connects with the resident's profile and highlights specific health needs that the dining or care team needs to be aware of.
We can also support the unique nutritional needs of seniors with:
- Real-time nutritional information on dining menus
- Reduced-fat, low-calorie, high fiber, and low-sodium options
- Seven options for physician-prescribed modified diets to support resident needs such as diabetes and dysphagia. These options include shape formed purees, Fortified Foods , and more.
