A great initiative at the IHBN
A great initiative at the IHBN (Hematology Institute Lower Normandy), gourmet lunches for patients hospitalized in a protected area.
Bringing a little comfort to hospitalized patients can also be achieved through food! A wonderful initiative at theHematology Institute of the Caen Normandy University Hospital , with the support of the Chugaï laboratory, and the La Villa Eugène restaurant in Caen.
Thanks to this support, the University Hospital is proud to allow 14 patients hospitalized in a protected area (sterile room) of theHematology Institute of Lower Normandy to enjoy a chef's menu!
These patients stay for an average of four weeks, which is particularly physically demanding. This meal is therefore a true moment of pleasure and escape, improving their well-being, morale, appetite, and emotional and nutritional state.
A big thank you to Xavier Legras ' team at Villa Eugène and chef Benjamin Capello.
On the menu for March 6th:
- Butternut squash aspic
- Cubed foie gras and crumble, Chicken ballotine – sweet potato cream, Albufera sauce and vegetables cooked English style
- Dessert was a delicious homemade caramel rice pudding.
This operation will be repeated once a month.
Upcoming dates:
- April 3
- May 15
- June 12
- July 10th and
- August 7
