Dining and Nutrition at The Firs
At The Firs we believe that mealtimes are one of the most important parts of the day for nutrition, social interaction, and overall well-being.
The Kitchen team is led by Sarah, who has been with The Firs since 2018.
Sarah and the kitchen team are dedicated to providing our residents with a dining experience that is not only nourishing but enjoyable and fulfilling, helping them to lead healthy and happy lives.
We also have a dining room team to help residents with their meals when required and monitor them to input necessary information into the care system. This allows management to flag up any concerns, especially as maintaining a healthy weight is so important.
Further to this, we focus on the following points:
Dining Experience
Our dining rooms are designed to create a warm and inviting atmosphere.
We want our residents to feel at ease and comfortable while they enjoy their meals. The spacious and airy dining room is filled with natural light, and dining tables are carefully arranged to encourage socialising while maintaining privacy.

Fresh Ingredients and Special Diets
All meals use high-quality ingredients to ensure balanced nutrition and delicious flavours.
We offer a seasonal menu that changes regularly to provide variety and cater to different tastes. Whether a hearty home-cooked meal or a light snack, each dish is crafted to be healthy and appetising.
When it comes to dietary and allergy needs, we understand that every resident may have unique requirements. The Firs works closely with each resident and their families to create personalised meal plans that cater to specific dietary requirements. This includes pureed foods, diabetic, vegetarian, gluten-free, or other medical-based needs.
Hydration and Snacks
In addition to our main meals, residents have access to snacks and drinks throughout the day. We understand the importance of hydration an treats. It is always hard to turn down a cup of tea and a biscuit.
Celebrating Special Occasions

From birthdays and anniversaries, Our team loves to bake a cake to surprise the residents or staff on their special day and make every celebration a memorable experience.
