Home meals & home care
The right diet, for the right patient, on every delivery
Renal, diabetic and IDDSI-texture diets managed in the kitchen and traced all the way home. Every tray carries its named prescription label, its cold-chain record and its reheating instructions.
A solution built for your sector
CalcMenu scales to your operation, from a few dozen to several thousand covers. The goal stays the same: one source of truth for recipes, allergens, and costs.
From prescription to the patient's plate, without a break.
Health & social care
Nursing homes, hospitals, psychiatric clinics, rehabilitation centres, home care and private clinics all share the same underlying risk: a prescribed diet has to reach the right resident or patient, every meal, across wards, sites and shift changes, with zero room for a mix-up. CalcMenu connects the prescription straight to the kitchen — therapeutic diets, allergens and IDDSI texture levels calculated once per recipe and applied automatically wherever that menu is served, with full traceability from prescription to plate.
What your teams deal with every day
From prescription to delivery without a break
The dietary prescription gets lost between the patient record, the kitchen and the driver. CalcMenu links the diet to the dish produced, then to the tray delivered, in a single chain.
A wrong diet at an isolated patient's home
Alone at home, the patient cannot flag a texture or allergen error. The named label and in-kitchen allergen check remove the risk before the meal even leaves.
Traceability and liability of the delivered meal
If a complaint arises, you must prove what was prepared, for whom and at what temperature. CalcMenu keeps the full HACCP trace, from the ingredient batch to the patient.
Home meals without the home mistake.
Profiles, diets and allergies follow every beneficiary to their meal tray. The kitchen prepares what's needed, the driver brings the right bag.
