Masada Private Hospital St Kilda – Meal Services
The catering department of the Masada Private Hospital St Kilda is a highlight. As a recovering patient, you will get a range of menus to choose from on daily basis (each morning).
Most importantly, both the cooks and the rest of the staff understand that you may have specific requirements (whether due to religious beliefs or designated diet) for which reason the department strives to offer diversified, healthy, and fresh produce to its patients. However, keep in mind that it is available solely for those that are staying at the hospital and that for now, Masada doesn’t offer food to visitors.
DIETARY REQUIREMENTS:
As mentioned above, in case you need any assistance when it comes to getting your meal, or there are special requests that you have to make sure to let the staff know. The team of nurses is available to help you at any point during day, after all, that is what the call button is for.
BRINGING MEALS TO MASADA PRIVATE HOSPITAL ST KILDA:
Unlike some other private hospitals, the Masada St Kilda doesn’t allow family members and friends to bring in prepared meals. This is mostly due to the fact that they want to risk that the patient gets food poisoning or ingests ingredients/food that they are allergic to. On the other hand, as long as you announce it, you can bring in fresh fruit, soft drinks, and commercial produce such as potato chips, etc.

What to look for in a Hospital for Plastic Surgery and Cosmetic Surgery
When you are looking at getting surgery there are several things to look for when it comes to the hospital and what they provide.
- Firstly, is it an Accredited Hospital with a reputation for Service, Safety and Security?
- Secondly, look for a Boutique sized Hospital. In other words, not too big not too small.
- Thirdly, are the caring staff and nurses friendly?
- Are the Facilities and rooms nice, and can you have a single room?
- Is the Food and Refreshments available healthy and nutritious. This is important for optimal recovery.
- And, lastly what are the in-room Entertainment options and WiFi
