More to PMH's kitchen than
obvious at first glance
By Molly Rhea
On the front wall o f Pioneer
Memorial’s modem kitchen is a
dry erase board filled with
cryptic notes reminding the
dietary staff of some o f the
residents' preferences—"Bill’s
allergic to strawberries”, “No
Pasta o f Any kind to Keithley -
Not
even
in
Soup”,“No
applesauce (Hates) or eggs for
Irene”, “Mane likes wheat
bread”, “Do Not send Edna
ground meat sandwiches or
biscuits/gravy”, “Paul, allergic to
grapes/grape juice”.
Obviously at least a couple of
the residents are diabetic as
evidenced by the notations,
“Marie needs a snack at 7 p.m. of
1 protein & 1 starch - No
Spinach”, “Leora needs 1 protein
& Vi starch at 7 p”.
Although people are eager to
jump on the bandwagon to
criticize “hospital food”, few
understand the complexities of
planning
and
preparing
nutritious, balanced meals three
times a day, 365 days a year for
more than 20 individuals.
Currently Pioneer Memorial
Settler’s Home, formerly Pioneer
Memorial Nursing Home, is
home to 20 residents, ranging in
age from 59 to 101. Each of
these folks has a diet prescribed
by their physician, which may
range from “Low Salt -
Diabetic”, “Low Potassium”, or
“Fluid Restricted”, to regular old
“Regular”. A few have food
allergies, problems with chewing
and/or swallowing, and all have
distinctive likes and dislikes.
Dietary department head, Sally
Maddem, and her crew o f five,
including Brian Skaggs, Sandra
Goodell, Carol Taylor, Jesse
Scott and Lois Connor, work
hard to prepare pleasing meals
for hospital
patients,
the
residents, as well as selling about
30 meals a day to hospital staff.
The kitchen staff also prepares
and packages
"Hot Meal
Express", a noon meal available
for home delivery. These dinners
are delivered by volunteers four
days a week.
When patients are critically ill
or in the midst of an emergency,
the kitchen staff goes out of their
way to provide beverages and
snacks to their family members,
as well as any emergency
volunteers.
There is more going on in
PMH’s kitchen than is obvious at
first glance-these people are
doing an outstanding job under
difficult circumstances.
