Happy New Year! When planning your guest and patient food service needs for 2023, consider a partnership with an award-winning dining services company that creates exceptional retail and patient experiences through customizable, wellness-driven & dynamic programs!
Just two short years ago Cura managed to win a large RFP with the prestigious Allegheny Health Network (AHN) of nine hospitals centered around Pittsburgh.
The team not only had to grow from two to nine hospitals in a very short amount of time, they immediately demonstrated added value to our clients – in large part by bringing some of our established and demonstrated operational, culinary practices, and our Completely Satisfied patient experience across the network.
“The Cura team understands the preferences and expectations of our patients, staff, and guests – both in terms of nutrition and hospitable service. Their commitment to those values is critical to driving the highest levels of comfort and satisfaction among those we care for,” said Eugene Scioscia, MD, AHN’s Chief Patient Experience Officer.

Beginning in the fall of 2022, Cura teams are proud to support AHN for Inclusion Health, and Healthy Food Centers in partnership with Greater Pittsburgh Community Food Bank and Second Harvest. Cura offers free healthy food options, nutrition education, and support to the greater Pittsburgh community! This has been a blessing this holiday season, especially for those who are food insecure!

Cura has big plans for 2023 as our marketing teams will refresh hospital cafes across the country – transforming typical hospital cafes into destinations that drive customers from the community as well as the hospitals to boost sales!
Earlier this year, Cura’s marketing team overhauled The Cane River Cafe at Natchitoches Regional Medical Center in Louisiana where sales and traffic are exceeding expectations.
Cura rebranded the space, introduced new concepts, refreshed the menu, and tweaked the design to enhance engagement. The result: Sales have increased by more than 52%, traffic has grown by 27%, and check averages are up nearly a dollar in less than a month of its June opening!
Along with creative marketing, our leading-edge tech innovations, including kiosks and touchless checkouts will help us to better drive guest satisfaction!
