Our Culinary Experience
As dementia progresses, your loved one’s appetite may decrease. This can present a major challenge for both the family caregiver and your loved one. This is why Grand Brook has carefully designed its Culinary Program to provide residents their preferred choices, as well as ensuring nutritional needs are met.
Our trained, professional Culinary Team prepares three delicious meals daily for our residents. The meals we serve are made from scratch, with the freshest ingredients. In fact, each of our Grand Brook communities use fresh, organic herbs grown in our very own herb gardens. The herbs are carefully tended to and cared for by our residents and then used by our chefs during meal preparation. Herbs are proven to increase the aroma of food while providing additional flavors, which have been found to aide in increasing the appetite of people with dementia. Every meal at Grand Brook is designed to appeal both aesthetically and to the taste.
The dining areas at Grand Brook are designed to encourage socialization and nurture friendships. We believe that mealtime is a time of fellowship and should nourish both the body and the soul. Families are always welcomed during mealtime. In fact, we encourage regular mealtime visits. We happily accommodate family gatherings such as birthday, anniversary and holiday celebrations, or casual coffee dates with your loved one.
