A reminder that for inpatients in our mental health care and secure divisions, all special diets must be managed through a process in place from admission. A special diet request form must be completed and emailed to the appropriate catering/facilities team to make sure that all patients receive the right and safest diet in a timely way. The form should be completed on admission, at new diagnosis or any change of diet and also at discharge. This will affect those needing halal, vegan, texture modified or who have allergies or intolerances – and please note that all allergies or intolerances require a formal medical confirmation of diagnosis.
