Food and nutrition
The team at Holmer Manor Private Care Home understand the importance of good nutrition for senior care and encourage our residents to have a healthy lifestyle.
Three balanced and delicious meals are served to our residents per day. Holmer Manor provide an in-house hearty breakfast made up of cereals, toast and fruits, as well as eggs, sausages and bacon for those with bigger appetites.
Two of our daily meals are provided by Apetito, an award-winning catering service for a variety of health and social care sectors. Each meal is created using a number of chosen main and side options and is rotated on a monthly basis to give residents the opportunity to discover new tastes.
Soups, sandwiches and salad are also provided by Holmer Manor for our evening meals to accompany chosen dinner options. Each meal is made with all dietary requirements in mind and can be pureed, adapted or substituted to cover any specific needs, allergies or wishes.
Refreshments such as tea or coffee, squash, water and juices are available throughout the day, alongside snacks, fruits and finger foods upon request.
