Kristin Monnier, director of food and nutrition services at Memorial Hospital, stands in front of a \u2018Grab and Go\u2019 cart which will be stocked with food for employees and visitors during construction that will close the kitchen.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

How does a juicy chicken sandwich smothered in mushrooms and Swiss cheese sound? Or a hot-off-the-grill hamburger smothered in blue cheese?<\/p>\n

This summer, Memorial Hospital Central will sell specialty burgers and sandwiches at barbecues as a way to offer hot lunches for employees during a 10-week period that the main kitchen in the hospital is closed. While the kitchen is closed, the grill area in the caf\u00e9 will not be available.<\/p>\n

Two semis \u2013 trucks equipped with ovens, stoves, refrigerators, prep space and more \u2013 will be parked outside of inpatient oncology on the southwest side of the hospital beginning June 27, 2016 and will serve as the primary kitchen for preparation of patient food. The semis will be used to provide food for patient meals but not for employee lunches.<\/p>\n

\u201cEvery patient meal will still receive delicious, highly-nutritious food, only we will prepare the food in a cooking facility that happens to be on wheels,\u2019\u2019 said Kristin Monnier, director of food and nutrition services at Memorial.<\/p>\n

Darnell Watts, a chef at Memorial Hospital Central, prepares a pizza in the hospital\u2019s kitchen, which will close for up to 10 weeks at the beginning of July to allow for construction involving the installation of a new grease trap.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The two semis, which together measure 96 feet, will take three or four days to set up. Memorial has to bring in electric, plumbing, wastewater and data lines to get the trucks up and running before they are inspected by the El Paso County Department of Health and Environment.<\/p>\n

Beginning July 7, chefs will begin providing patient meals \u2013 as many as 900 a day \u2013 from those trucks.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur priority is to continue providing great patient food during this process,\u2019\u2019 Monnier said. \u201cWe\u2019re still providing patient room service and our goal is that patients do not see any difference.\u2019\u2019

\nThe caf\u00e9 in the basement of the hospital will remain open, though food options will include sandwiches, pizza, salads, soups, snacks and drinks. At least once a week, a barbecue, food truck or some other creative food option will be available to offer a variety of food items at lunchtime for employees.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are adding a grab-and-go cooler at the caf\u00e9 with some additional new food options,\u2019\u2019 Monnier said. \u201cWe want to make this fun. We\u2019re planning the outdoor barbecues and inviting food trucks during lunch, so staff can come outside and get a meal that\u2019s different from the usual caf\u00e9 items. We\u2019ll have this on the hospital side of the tennis courts, just outside the west entrance.<\/p>\n

\u201cAnd to kick it all off, when customers visit the first barbecue, we\u2019ll ask them if they\u2019d like to see the semi-trucks so they can get an idea of what this looks like, and the kind of environment we will be working in,\u2019\u2019 Monnier said.<\/p>\n

Last November, Memorial began to work on a massive $2 million project to install a new 3,500-gallon grease trap to capture grease and solids. The project involves the removal and replacement of pipes and drains that lead from the kitchen to the exterior of the hospital on the east and west sides.<\/p>\n

\u201cThough a grease trap project is not that exciting, we are looking forward to having this work behind us. We\u2019ll have a grand re-opening when the kitchen is completed \u2013 and maybe a few surprises,\u2019\u2019 Monnier said.<\/p>\n
