ARV Catering
24 Brookhollow Avenue, Baulkham Hills NSW 2153
Across all ARV villages, there is a wide variety of delicious and nutritionally balanced food options to choose from. Our chefs, menu planners and nutritional experts work together to create innovative new recipes and old favourites alike.
At our extensive Research and Development Kitchen at Norwest Estate in Baulkham Hills, we¿re constantly testing new meal options, some suggested by our residents.
Good Food = Good Health
At ARV, our residents' nutritional needs are taken very seriously. In fact we regard diet as one of the most crucial factors affecting residents' health.
We know that the need to fuel your body and brain doesn¿t change all that much as you get older, but a proactive approach to diet and nutrition can have a beneficial effect on your health - not just your physical health, but mental and social health as well.
What's On The Menu
ARV Catering offers an affordable four week rotating menu with summer and winter menu options, as well as BBQ, special event days, special function and culturally themed menus such as Chinese, Indian, French and Italian.
Catering to the Wider Community
In addition to providing quality meals to residents of ARV Villages, ARV Catering also offers its services to other aged care organisations as well as boarding schools and colleges, private and public hospitals and community services, including Meals on Wheels, in the Sydney Metropolitan region.
With our production capacity, cutting edge technology and purchasing power, ARV Catering is able to offer customers high quality food, service, and flexibility in menu choice at an affordable price.
A Carefully Managed, Thorough Process
As part of our evaluation process, a trial menu is sent out to all organizations for client feedback to ensure our customer's preferences and tastes are being met. All menus are evaluated by ARV's Consultant Dietician to ensure the menu is nutritionally balanced to comply with the Australian Dietary Guidelines for the elderly.
ARV Catering provides Account Manager support services to clients to assist with menu selection, cost control, and the training of staff in food preparation, presentation and food safety. A monthly site visit is conducted with clients and reported through call reports which outline residents' and Manager¿s feedback, and servery procedures.
