Recently, there has been a new statewide initiative at Maryland health care facilities to encourage patients to eat more healthily.
FutureCare Cherrywood is one of nine Maryland health care facilities that regularly purchases and serves local, sustainable beef and poultry to its patients while reducing its food budget.
These hospitals and nursing homes are all part of the Chesapeake Food Leadership Council, a group made up of hospital representatives and foodservice professionals that works to connect healthcare professionals so they can implement sustainable environmental programs at health facilities across Maryland.
Sustainability programs have been implemented at multiple nursing homes and hospitals throughout the state and the number of council participants continues to grow each year.
