Who this is for
The Kind Of Resident This Serves Best.
Every resident. Three home-cooked meals daily, plus snacks, with attention to dietary needs, cultural preferences, and what each person actually enjoys eating.
Our approach
How We Actually Do This.
Meals are cooked from scratch in our kitchen, the way meals should be. We accommodate dietary restrictions — diabetic-friendly, low-sodium, soft-food, kosher when possible — and we cook culturally familiar foods for residents from East African backgrounds. Mealtime is also social: residents eat together when they want, and family is welcome to join.

"My father is from Eritrea and missed home cooking terribly. At Simon he gets injera, doro wat, sambusa — real food, made by someone who knows it. He looks forward to meals again."
Common questions
What Families Ask Us.
Can my loved one eat foods from their own culture?
Yes. Genet cooks Ethiopian and Eritrean dishes regularly, and we accommodate other cultural preferences as well. Tell us what feels like home.
What about food allergies or dietary restrictions?
Tell us during intake and we'll plan meals around them. We routinely cook diabetic-friendly, low-sodium, and soft-food meals.
Can family members join for a meal?
Of course. Just let us know in advance so we can plan.
What if my loved one has trouble eating?
We adjust food textures, help with feeding when needed, and watch for signs of swallowing difficulty. Mealtime support is part of our daily care.
