AYAH Patient and Family Orientation Pack

Meals Meals are provided for patients, families and carers who are staying at the AYAH. If you plan to have visitors, please tell the Service Manager or the Chef and the team will do their best to accommodate additional meal requirements. Please share any dietary requirements or food allergy details with the Clinical Nurse Specialist prior to your admission. We encourage all patients, family members and carers to enjoy meals in the AYAH dining room. • Continental style breakfast: self-service from 7am. • Lunch: home style buffet from 12:30pm. • Dinner: home style buffet from 5:30pm. Snacks including tea/coffee, biscuits, juice, fresh fruit (seasonal), popcorn, savoury crackers, cheese, dried fruit and nuts, muesli bars, flavoured milk etc. are available in the dining room or Level 1 Lounge room as required.

We have a portable BBQ for outside use and encourage you to speak to kitchen staff to arrange access if you wish to use. Feel free to use the fridge that is in your room but be mindful of food expiring and dispose of such items appropriately using the bins provided. Please take any food you have brought with you upon discharge.

Patient Meal Support Only clinical staff, families or assigned carers can help feed patients during mealtimes. Volunteers and other staff will happily help gather utensils or a drink, but due to policy restrictions, cannot feed patients who require support.
