If a resident doesn't prefer one of two entrees served, he or she can select an entree from the Always Available menu. A few items from that menu are: Grilled Salmon, Chef Salad, Grilled Cheeseburger and Chicken Cranberry Salad. Our Chef can serve low-sodium meals and always offers a sugar-free dessert.
