Room service meals
Healthy and delicious meals made to order
Eating well in hospital is important. It can help your body recover from childbirth more quickly and get off to a great start with plenty of milk for your baby.
Our room service gives you the flexibility to order meals when it suits you — we even have an all-day breakfast menu. Meals can be ordered at a time that allows for visitors or just having that much needed afternoon sleep.
Each meal is cooked fresh to order and delivered within 45 minutes from placing the order. You can also pre-order a meal and have it delivered at a specified time.
How to place an order
Our room service is available to order between 6.30am and 7.00pm daily by phoning extension 3663.
A room service assistant will take your order. If you have special dietary needs, the assistant will guide you through your menu choices, so that you can be sure of getting an enjoyable meal offering good nutrition.
Special dietary considerations
To help you make healthy meal choices, there are symbols throughout the menu to indicate lower saturated fat/lower salt options, lower glycaemic index carbohydrate choices, and carbohydrate serves. Gluten free options are available for many menu items.
For mums with diabetes
If you’re following a diabetic diet or consistent carbohydrate meal plan, you should be eating 3 well balanced meals a day, with similar serves of carbohydrate at each meal. If you’re on insulin, you can calculate your carbohydrate serves on the menu.
Room service for your partner
If your partner is with you, they can purchase a meal package at a cost of $250 for the duration of the Hospital stay.
