Everyone who has visited a hospital knows that the food served to patients is often not the highlight of the establishment. However, the story of one of the patients in the German hospital Krankenhaus Wermelskirchen in North Rhine-Westphalia shows that reality can be quite different.

A patient staying for treatment in a German hospital decided to share photos of the meals he received there. The photographs quickly gained popularity on social media, delighting internet users.

Caring for the quality of food aims to improve patients' well-being and speed up their recovery. A well-balanced diet is key to the treatment process, and satisfied patients recover faster.

Meals in hospitals. This is how they feed in Germany

In the photographs, plates are filled to the brim with various delicacies, including fresh bread that looks like it just came out of the oven. Next to it, we find butter, a perfect addition to the delicious slices.

For insured patients, a stay in the hospital costs 9 pounds per day. This includes food, three such meals. Ten types of tea, coffee, and mineral water, as much as one wants - explains an internet user.

Various cold cuts and cheeses look extremely appetizing. Everything is served aesthetically with attention to detail. The plates are laden with goodness, making patients feel like they are dining in a restaurant rather than a hospital.

I stayed in a hospital in Germany and the food was really delicious. Choices every day. Since I indicated modestly, the nurse marked much more for me. Drinking was unlimited. Two weeks ago, I was in a hospital in Poland and there is a huge gap in terms of the quality of the meals - commented intenret user on the photographs.
Are you surprised that the country with the largest economy in Europe has better hospital food? - asked Sebastian rhetorically.

Hospitals in Germany greatly emphasize the quality of the meals served, striving to ensure they are balanced and provide all necessary nutrients.

Patients have a variety of dishes to choose from every day, allowing the meals to be tailored to individual needs and taste preferences. Fresh vegetables, fruits, and salads are a regular part of the menu, further enhancing its value.
