Dietary Services

Dietary Services The Dietary Services Department at Cimarron Memorial Hospital is dedicated to providing safe, nutritious, and high-quality meals that support patient health, healing, and recovery. Our primary goal is to ensure every patient receives appropriate nutritional care, whether following a regular diet or a special or modified diet prescribed by a healthcare provider.

Our dietary team is comprised of highly trained cooks, Registered Dietitian, and a Certified Dietary Manager who work closely with nursing staff, and medical providers to ensure each individual patient’s nutritional needs are met.

We recognize the vital role nutrition plays in the healing process and are committed to tailoring meals to meet each patient’s medical and nutritional requirements. In addition to providing medically appropriate meals, we strive to create a comfortable and pleasant dining experience. Open communication between patients and the dietary team is encouraged. Trained dietary staff may visit with patients to discuss food preferences, allergies, or additional dietary restrictions, and staff are always available to answer questions or address concerns related to meals or nutrition. We are proud to be part of your care team and are committed to supporting your recovery through high-quality nutritional services.
