At Your Request Room Service Dining Program
Sodexo provides the hospital’s food services. RWJUH Rahway has a room service-style meal system. Patients may call ext. 6325 to order their meals. A menu with a variety of selections is located on each bedside table or in the folder slots on the wall. Meals will typically take 45 minutes to arrive after a call has been placed.

A representative will visit each patient upon arrival to review ordering procedures and address any food service needs.

Meals may be ordered any time between 7 a.m. and 6:30 p.m.

SUGGESTED ORDERING SCHEDULE
Breakfast:    7:00 a.m. - 8:30 a.m.
Lunch:       11:30 a.m. - 1:00 p.m.

If a patient is on a therapeutic diet their selections will be limited to the foods that their diet allows. The Nutrition Services operator will advise the patient of their menu restrictions. Every effort will be made to conform to each patient’s culinary preferences. Patients should contact a dietitian with any questions or problems concerning their diet. Dietitians will provide nutrition counseling on therapeutic diets.

RWJUH Rahway does not accept responsibility for any other items placed on the food service tray. Patients assume the responsibility of assuring that the tray items meet their religious standards of kosher.
