the  dinners  at  home  program

The Dinners at Home Program was started in 1999 to support the elderly population in the South Okanagan. The meals are prepared by Interior Health employees in the Penticton Regional Hospital and frozen to allow for safe transportation and distribution anywhere in Interior Health. Many of the Meals on Wheels programs in Interior Health provide one or more of the Frozen Dinners with their hot meal delivery service for clients to use on days when Meals on Wheels is not delivering. The meals have been prepared in containers that can be heated in a microwave or a regular oven.
