Healthcare | Culinary &
Nutrition Services

At Forefront, we are committed to elevating patient dining experiences by offering high-end options, including on-demand or room service dining. Research indicates that such tailored dining experiences not only enhance patient satisfaction, but also contribute to improved oral intake and physical outcomes. Key components of our approach include:
Customized Dining Options | Our culinary team is dedicated to crafting delicious, freshly prepared meals that cater to individual tastes and dietary needs. With our on-demand and room service dining options, patients have the flexibility to enjoy meals at their convenience, promoting a sense of control and well-being.
Focus on Health and Satisfaction | We understand the integral role nutrition plays in patient recovery and satisfaction. By offering healthy food choices, we strive to enhance both the quality of life and the quality of care provided to patients.
Flexible Service Models | Recognizing the diverse needs of our patient population, we offer multiple dining service options, ranging from room service to all-day dining. This ensures that each patient receives personalized and responsive care that aligns with their unique preferences and requirements.

Patient dining, retail food service, and the integration of registered dietitians with the interdisciplinary care team are critical components of the overall patient experience.

Despite serving vital roles in society, organizations catering to the needs of vulnerable populations, such as Behavioral Health, Addiction Treatment, MRDD, Adolescent and Youth, Hospice, and others, often find themselves overlooked when it comes to tailored culinary and support services. Generic, one-size-fits-all programs frequently miss the mark in meeting their specialized requirements.
At Forefront, we recognize the unique challenges these organizations face and the importance of personalized solutions. Our approach involves crafting specific programs designed to align seamlessly with the distinct needs of each population under care.
We understand that individuals with varying levels of care require nuanced dietary and nutrition plans. Diets are not merely about sustenance but play a pivotal role in both physical and mental well-being, especially during the end-of-life stage. Research indicates that proper nutrition can enhance cognitive functioning, alleviate physical ailments, and even mitigate the severity of mental illnesses and their symptoms. Moreover, food can provide solace and comfort for those in palliative care or hospice settings.
With our tailored programs, we aim to optimize the nutritional support provided to each individual, ensuring their holistic health and comfort are prioritized at every stage of care.

Our approach is rooted in research, which highlights that incorporating healthy food choices in retail areas enhances satisfaction among both visitors and staff members. Key components of our approach include:
Health and Convenience | Our retail solutions encompass everything from convenience markets to bespoke food destinations, all designed with a focus on health, wellness, variety, and sustainability. We understand the importance of providing options that cater to diverse dietary preferences and lifestyles.
Enhanced Dining Experience | By creating restaurant and market-style dining options, we not only elevate the dining experience but also boost retail dining revenue. Our tailored solutions are crafted to meet the evolving needs and expectations of our clientele, ensuring that every visit is a delightful and satisfying experience.
Relaxing and Flexible Environments | Our retail spaces serve as havens where both staff and visitors can escape from the stresses of their days. Whether it’s a quick bite on the go or a leisurely meal enjoyed in a tranquil setting, we strive to create environments that promote relaxation and rejuvenation.
