Mobile Meals -- home-delivered meals

Mobile MealsThe Mobile Meals program offers convenient and nutritious home-delivered meals throughout Milwaukee and eastern Waukesha counties.

Hot meals and a safety check

The Mobile Meals staff, who are carefully screened, deliver high-quality, nutritious meals Monday through Friday between 10:30 a.m. and 1:30 p.m. Weekend frozen meals and sides are delivered each Saturday between the hours of 9 a.m. and 12:30 p.m.

One- or two-meal a day options are available. Delivery staff not only bring the meals, but also provide a safety check on the client's well being, offering family members peace of mind.

Mobile Meals meet many needs

Mobile Meals are for anyone who wishes to receive this convenient and affordable service. Many people receive meals when they are:

  • Recuperating from a hospital stay
  • Temporarily or permanently disabled
  • Transitioning to a new dietary program
  • Unable to access transportation and cannot shop for food items

Thoughtful meal planning

Mobile Meals menus are selected under the guidance of registered dietitians at Aurora Health Care. Meals are designed to provide nutritional requirements, as well as variety and taste. All meals are prepared by the experienced staff of the Aurora Health Care Department of Food Management. Special diets are available at no extra cost. Standard available diets include:

  • General
  • No concentrated sweets
  • Heart healthy (low salt, low cholesterol, low fat)
  • Mechanically altered (chopped, ground, or pureed)
  • Renal
  • Low lactose
  • Arrangements can also be made for Kosher meals
  • We also deliver Glucerna Instant Breakfast (CIB) nutritional supplements by the case.

Starting the program

Starting the program is easy. Health care providers, family members of patients or community residents can simply call the Mobile Meals office between 8 a.m. and 4 p.m., Monday through Friday to request services. To order, please call 414-328-4444.

A friendly Mobile Meals person will collect all the necessary information, including special instructions for meals or delivery.

Clients are asked to sign up to receive meals for a minimum of five days per month. The days do not need to be consecutive. Next day service is available if the order is placed by 10 a.m.
