Menu

Our National Food and Beverage Manager has worked tirelessly with his team to introduce innovative processes and systems across Arcare to improve the variety, quality, and nutritional value of the food our residents receive every day. This is an ongoing process, with many more things planned in future.

Arcare cooks all food fresh on-site by qualified Chefs – many of whom have undergone the Maggie Beer Foundation’s training programs (with more training scheduled).

Our menus change seasonally and are all extensively reviewed by nutritionists and dietitians to ensure residents are being offered robust meal choices. We also ensure that residence cohorts are taken into consideration, and menus are adjusted for cultural preferences and expectations.

In addition, we have partnered with PureFood Co who provide us with high quality texture modified food for residents who require it. This has the additional advantage of enabling our on-site chefs to use the time they would have spent preparing texture modified foods (which is incredibly delicate and intricate) to mingle with residents and discuss their preferences throughout the week.

Arcare endeavours to offer choice, both in menu options and food delivery.

Arcare is always looking for innovative ways that we can improve. In line with this we are proud to showcase our long term collaboration with The Pure Food Co. They create texture-modified meals that are nutritious, safe and appeal to aged care residents.

“These products improve presentation, nutritional outcomes for our residents, as well as reducing the risk factor in the kitchens.” Wayne – National Food & Beverage Manager Arcare.

Our Chefs utilise this product which improves presentation and saves time so that the Chefs are able to focus on resident engagement and focus to resident needs.

Enjoy your meal with your community members or in the privacy of your own suite.
