3 Ways to Integrate Foodservice Systems

3 Ways to Integrate Foodservice Systems

To maximize benefits for healthcare operators, software providers must work together to integrate foodservice systems. With the holidays quickly approaching, Computrition thought it would be timely to share how thankful we are for our partnerships. Collaborating with third party vendors enables us to expand the unique technical capabilities that hospitals and health systems desire. Consequently, operators can use unified data to make more informed decisions and reach their goals. That’s what we call a win-win-win!

Menu Boards

A picture is worth a thousand words; in a retail foodservice environment, it can help generate revenue by enhancing displays. With digital menu boards, operators can move away from static menu boards and towards dynamic, interactive, and engaging displays. Technology can transform hospital retail spaces and boost customer satisfaction with accurate, real-time menu data such as:
  • Recipe names
  • Nutrient information
  • Pricing
  • On-the-fly menu changes

Additionally, an ideal software solution will integrate foodservice systems in one centralized location, preventing the need for manual board changes. For example, Computrition offers interoperability between our nutrition system and other applications, including external ones.

Food Labeling

Another vital aspect of healthcare retail foodservice is nutrition labeling, which supplies pertinent information to help customers make healthy decisions. Computrition’s labeling solution revolutionizes retail by eliminating manual label creation, enhancing customer satisfaction, and streamlining processes.

Additionally, we team up with third-party vendors to integrate foodservice systems for the ultimate label customization. Operators can streamline workflows and provide accurate data by designing labels, printing essential facts, automatically calculating expiration dates, and generating barcodes.

Patient Ordering

Some patients may prefer guidance from caregivers, while others may enjoy the autonomy of self-ordering. Offering an assortment of patient meal ordering options helps meet the needs of diverse populations. Different solutions can help operators increase patient and staff satisfaction, reallocate labor, and reduce manual errors.

Among several solutions, Computrition offers TV/tablet ordering to support hospitals with interactive patient engagement systems or smart room platforms. Thanks to integrated foodservice systems, users can easily access nutritional information to choose meals according to their allergies, restrictions, and preferences.

While self-ordering empowers users to make selections independently, caregivers maintain ultimate control over patients’ nutritional needs. They can also verify which patients are missing selections, presenting an opportunity to elevate care with a personal touchpoint.
