I miss not being able to make the instant croissants, biscuits, and cinnamon rolls that I enjoyed as a kid because I can’t eat gluten. I’m confident Pillsbury could provide these mainstays for gluten-free people if they put their minds to it!
I have celiac disease and it’s very sparse food option wise when I’m in the grocery stores looking for meals to make for the week. If pillsbury offered a canned gluten free biscuit I would buy it every week along with others I’m certain. Thanks for your time.
This not only affects employees, but also patients and their families. Not only is it difficult (sometimes impossible) for nurses to get down to the cafeteria by 10 pm, but we also admit patients all night long who bring along friends and family who haven’t gotten the chance to step away from them and grab something to eat, possibly all day. Being admitted to the ICU is often times a very unexpected thing, preceded by a very scary and unexpected day. Once their loved one is settled, many times they will finally get a moment to themselves to eat and recoup. This takes away that opportunity for them if it happens to be after 10 pm. Imagine the stress of a very sick or dying loved one added to the fact that you’re exhausted and starving with no options to feed yourself except for chips from a vending machine. On top of that, imagine trying to listen and comprehend the information that doctors and nurses are telling you about your loved one when you’re stressed, exhausted, and hungry.
It’s disheartening to see such disregard for employees, patients, and their loved ones. We have an entire department dedicated to diet & nutrition, that alone shows how important it is. We advocate for patients and families, but who advocates for us?
When I worked at JMCHGH, there were many nights I didn’t have time to ge to the cafeteria until midnight or later. It was discouraging not having all the same options as dayshift, but even the limited options available in the cafeteria were helpful so to have that go away would be awful for those who work so hard. Also for labor patients who delivered on night shift, it’s nice for them to have options for food once they’re able to eat. Please consider staying open for those who can’t help what time they’re awake in the hospital.
