The Benefits of Conveyor Ovens for Healthcare Foodservice

When you think of a conveyor oven, your mind might immediately picture delicious pizzas, emerging piping hot and ready for delivery. While this is certainly a great application for a conveyor oven, it’s not the only one. 

The right conveyor oven can produce much more than pizza and can work in a wide range of operations outside of takeout and delivery. And while healthcare foodservice might not be the first application that comes to mind, healthcare foodservice directors can benefit from a conveyor oven for several reasons. Let’s walk through a few of those now.

Expand Healthcare Foodservice Menu Options

Patients, visitors, and healthcare providers have varying menu preferences and dietary needs that promote wellness, the first goal of any healthcare foodservice program. The right conveyor oven can help deliver these benefits by providing simple cooking capabilities that result in high-quality, nutritious meals that are driven by nutrition goals. From roasted vegetables to baked goods like quiches to a classic hamburger, conveyor ovens add versatility to any hospital kitchen. With WOW! Ovens from Middleby Marshall, it’s possible to create an endless amount of food products ranging from chicken, seafood, vegetables, sandwiches, and, of course, pizza.

Serve Food Quicker and More Efficiently

Conveyor ovens are ideal for high-volume operations such as hospitals, healthcare facilities, senior care communities, and long-term healthcare accommodations. Choosing the right conveyor oven becomes pivotal in expediting service to meet the demands of larger capacity needs.

Consider the WOW! Ovens from Middleby Marshall. These units can deliver high-quality menu items with cook times up to 30 percent faster than other conveyor ovens. Great cooking results come from improved airflow and advanced burner designs that increase efficiency, and reduce the strain on labor, allowing staff members to reallocate time to other areas of the operations such as patient-facing services.

Having equipment that’s easy to use is another key to getting food out the door fast. Middleby Marshall WOW! Ovens have easy-to-use digital controls that can reduce training times for staff members, helping operators become more efficient in less time.

Make Better Use of Kitchen Space with Conveyor Ovens for Healthcare Foodservice

With Middleby Marshall’s WOW! Ventless Ovens, all the great benefits mentioned above can be achieved in spaces where ventilation doesn’t exist. Ventless cooking capabilities allow operators to move units to otherwise unusable areas within the operation, and with Middleby Marshall WOW! Ovens, those units can be stacked for maximum output. This versatility allows directors to utilize unconventional spaces and increase the potential for profits.
