Dietary Services
At Extendicare Timmins, we pride ourselves in providing nutritious home-cooked meals. Our Resident Council consists of a dedicated group of residents who meet regularly with the dietary manager to discuss and review the current menu. Changes to our menu are made as a result of the feedback that we receive from our Resident Council.
Our in house registered dietitian assesses the nutritional requirements of our residents and together with them, their families and registered team members, creates a best-suited nutritional plan of care.
