Who We Serve
Feed your senior-living team, every shift, without touching your kitchen
Your CNAs and night staff care for residents around the clock, but most facility kitchens close by 8pm. We bring real food on-site, day shift through NOC, with no work for your kitchen team.

How MHP serves Senior Living
Three programs from one local Rancho Cucamonga kitchen. Pick one or combine them to cover every shift.
Smart Fridge
Stocked and ready at 2am
A Drop-and-Go smart fridge gives your evening and NOC staff real, tap-to-open meals long after the kitchen goes dark. It runs 24/7 so no shift is left out.

Weekly Team Meal Delivery
Food to take home
Individual meal-prep subscriptions help workers earning poverty-adjacent wages eat well off the clock too, a tangible benefit for people living paycheck to paycheck.
See how it fits →The food problems unique to senior-living teams
From assisted-living communities across the Inland Empire and Greater Los Angeles to skilled-nursing facilities in Orange County, generic catering and delivery apps were not built for round-the-clock care teams. Here is what actually gets in the way, and what we fix.
The kitchen closes, the shift doesn't
Most facility kitchens close between 7 and 8pm, leaving evening and night staff, roughly 50 to 60% of a 24/7 facility's shifts, with no access to freshly prepared food.
Night staff get left out
Even operators who provide staff meals usually set up for day shift only, and excluded night workers report it as a fairness grievance.
Breaks get skipped for residents
Resident-first culture means care staff routinely interrupt or forgo their legally mandated 30-minute meal breaks.
Vending isn't a meal
At $18 to $21 an hour, most direct-care workers can't spend $15 to $20 a shift on restaurants, so it's vending, food from home, or nothing.
Flagship Catering Program

Recurring chef-prepared lunches dropped off and set up on-site, so your heaviest-staffed shift gets food worth eating — without your kitchen team lifting a finger.

- 1 delivery per week

FAQ — Senior Living
Common questions from Senior Living leaders about bringing fresh, fully managed meals on-site.
Will this add work for our kitchen team? +
No. We handle delivery, setup, and restock. Your kitchen staff don't coordinate anything, the program runs alongside resident dining, not through it.
Can you finally feed our night (NOC) staff? +
Yes. The 24/7 Smart Fridge is built for exactly the evening and overnight shifts most staff-meal setups leave out.
Do we have to sign a long-term contract? +
We don't start with a long-term contract. Most teams begin with a 30-day pilot that includes a week-2 cancel checkpoint — if it's not landing, you stop right there with no obligation for the rest of the month.
How is pricing structured? +
It depends on headcount, frequency, and which program fits your site. We quote to your worksite and can structure it as employer-funded, subsidized, or simple pay-per-meal. Send us an inquiry — we'll reach out to confirm fit and follow up with your rate within 24 hours. Better rates available for prepayment.
