Upper Allegheny Health System (UAHS) hospital campuses, Bradford Regional Medical Center (BRMC) and Olean General Hospital (OGH), provided patients who could not be home for Christmas with a special holiday meal.

Patients at BRMC and OGH as well as residents at the Pavilion received a festive complimentary meal for themselves and a guest.

“The holidays are all about being together with family and friends. Being able to provide these complimentary gourmet meals to our patients, residents and their guests to spend time together is so important to us,” said Julie Becker, general manager, food and nutrition services. “We want to provide the best patient experience possible. We hope that through this small gesture our patients’ Christmas will be more pleasant.”

Both hospitals’ Christmas Day menu included sirloin steak, roasted red potatoes, roasted cauliflower and gingerbread thimble cake.
