FAQ
What's for lunch?
Scroll down for the current monthly menus.
I’m on Family Care/IRIS, can I get meals delivered?
Meals are available with a service authorization.
Work with your Care Manager/Care Consultant to include meals in your care plan.
How long can I get meals delivered?
Meals are available on a long-term or temporary basis depending on your needs. Some receive meals short-term while recovering from illness or surgery, while a caregiver is out of town, or when driving is more difficult, like in winter.
Or you can receive meals long-term, helping you stay in your home so you or your caregiver have one less meal to shop for and prepare.
