Southeast Missouri Hospital

If you aren’t able to prepare a hot meal for yourself on either a short or long term basis, and you live within Cape’s city limits, call Southeast Home Health today at 651-5800.

Find out how the Meals on Wheels program sponsored by the Southeast Missouri Hospital Auxiliary can help you.

We deliver meals to anyone, regardless of age, who is unable to prepare a meal because of:

• Visual, physical, mental or other disabilities
• Infirmities of age
• Recovery from surgery, illness or injuries

Meals, smiles and good cheer are brought to your home during the noon hour Monday - Friday by volunteers from local churches and the Medical Alliance.

Now is a good time to sign up because we have openings and we’re offering a new menu that features more variety and an entrée choice each day, from chicken tenders to hamburgers, meatloaf or a breakfast casserole and more.

Feedback from participants:

“There is enough food for another meal – enough for the rest of the day.”

“The food is great. We highly recommend it.”

“The people who deliver the meals are wonderful and I enjoy visiting with them.”

Best of all, more food and more choices are available for the same price of $2.25 a day, less than other home meal delivery programs. Food Stamps also are accepted.

Because the food is prepared at Southeast Missouri Hospital, meals are nutritious and can even be individualized for someone with medical reasons for a physician-prescribed diet.

Meals are now delivered in vacuum-sealed containers so your hot food arrives hot! The disposable containers can also be used to freeze and reheat the meals. Another plus!

If you or someone you know could benefit from Meals on Wheels, call Southeast Home Health at 651-5800.
