The NHS Hospital Food Review – where are we now?

‘The Future of Hospital Kitchens #2’ Rational seminar considers latest thinking, six months on

Under the heading, ‘The Future of Hospital Kitchens #2’, this is the second Rational seminar to deep dive into the Hospital Food Review, the first one having taken place six months ago.  Colin Parry, Director of Rational and a member of the seminar panel, says, “The seminar is supporting the industry by offering hospital caterers a forum where they can continue the Review conversation.  Not only will attendees find out what the experts are thinking, but also hear what leading exponents are doing to fulfil the aims of the Review.”

Rational’s latest free online hospital catering seminar considers how the landscape has changed since the launch of the NHS Hospital Food Review.  The panel of experts, including Philip Shelley, Chair of the Review, will cover a wide range of topics, looking at the latest ideas and strategies to promote best practice.

The seminar takes place on Wednesday October 20th, from 3-5pm.  To register to attend email seminars@rational-online.com.

On the panel alongside Phillip Shelley and Colin Parry are Naomi Campbell RGN, an independent hydration care nurse consultant; Tim Radcliffe, Facilities Manager at East Lancashire Hospital; Mike Ridder of Dragon Consultancy; and Nick Vadis, Culinary Director at Compass Group.  Together they’ll  give a “six months on” progress report and cover key topics as diverse as staffing, hydration and food to go.

Colin Parry will also be on the panel for the upcoming Hospital Caterers Association seminar (to run on 10th November, 2021) where he will lead the section discussing the growing importance of food to go in the hospital sector.

‘The Future of Hospital Kitchens #2’ is the fifth in a series of sector-specific online seminars run by Rational in association with The Chefs’ Forum.  Each looks at, and is tailor-made for, a specific sector, such as hospitals, education or pubs.  To find out more email seminars@rational-online.com.
