HOSPITALS AND LONG-TERM CARE

Carson’s provides dining management for a variety of businesses including hospitals and skilled nursing facilities. Our regulatory compliance history is excellent and so is our service and food. Long-term care communities feel that Carson’s open dining hours and cooked to order meals greatly improves customer and employee satisfaction. It also eliminates hectic meal-time stress and frees staff to provide more individual-focused care.

Hospitals like our cafeteria style service for their employees and visitors. Menus vary daily and are designed around requests and most popular items. Room service to hospital patients is cooked to order and delivered immediately.

Healthy and gluten free options are available for many meals. Nutritional information is generally posted on the wall and menu for easy reference. The food tastes great and our fresh ground coffee is always popular.
