PART I 

GLUTEN FREE READY MEALS

By Greta de Wolf 

We had a request from a Dietitian, Sparrow Hospital for ready made meals. She is working with an 83 year old woman who has been dependent on Meals on Wheels. 

So I have researched the topic and here is my list. There are probably others out there but this is what I have. If you have others, please let me know. 

One of our members suggested finding someone who will come in and cook. They have someone but that person is not able to take others. 

Our dietitian advisor, Dr. Mary Noel is adamant about the fact that MEALS on WHEELS cannot deny service as they fix meals for other persons with food restrictions. Does anyone want to work with them? I am sending them a package including a copy of the article from Lifeline, "Can a Person with Celiac disease eat safely in a hospital" by Mark Dinga. I am sending this to all hospital dietitians as well.
