Fraser Health Food Services is committed to providing choice at meals for you via our Choice Dining Program.
"We’re not only here to feed patients, we are also here to nourish their souls. Good food brings nutrition, comfort and happiness. It’s very important to recovery.” – Elaine Chu, R.D., manager, Food Operations, Royal Columbian Hospital
Choice Dining is rolling out in select hospitals starting in 2023. Those on Choice Dining will be able to select menu items for lunch and dinner every day. Choice at breakfast may also be available at some sites.

How does Choice Dining work?
If the ward you or your loved one is on is participating in the Choice Dining program, you can order your meals in two ways:
-
Via the CBORD Patient App:
You can download the CBORD Patient App on your personal hand-held device and place your order electronically. The CBORD Patient App can be downloaded on Google Play for Android devices (CBORD Patient - Apps on Google Play) or the App store for iOS devices (CBORD Patient on the App Store (apple.com)) . Alternatively, the CBORD Patient App can also be accessed through a weblink (https://patient.cbord.com/login). -
Via Room Service Choice:
You can be visited by a Menu Assistant from the kitchen who will take your order at the bedside.

Who is eligible for Choice Dining?
Patients on most diets will be able to participate in Choice Dining. However, those on multiple or very restrictive diets may not be eligible. Speak with your nurse to inquire about your eligibility.
-
What if I am not eligible for Choice Dining?
If you or your loved one is not eligible for Choice Dining, you will receive a standard tray based on the diet your health care provider ordered for you. You may be able to adjust the foods on your tray. Please speak with the nurse and request a visit from Food Services to review your food preferences.
