Patient Food Services
The Dietetic Unit at Hospital Universitari i Politècnic La Fe develops the more appropriate diets for patients. For this reason, we recommend that they do not eat nor drink anything but the food from the hospital.
If the patient, due to religious reasons, allergies, etc., cannot eat something from the diet given to him/her, he/she or a family member should notify the nursing staff.
The top-quality food served at Hospital La Fe is cooked daily in our own kitchens. The menus include Mediterranean gastronomy and are divided in two types of diet:
- Basal diet: without any restriction
- Therapeutic diet: with food and quantity restrictions due to health reasons. It varies depending on the disease of the patient
