Family Meals

Flexible Schedule | Baltimore, MD 21207

The UM Rehabilitation & Orthopaedic Institute is in need of home cooked meals! We have a guest house for patients and families where having a meal prepared for them might make a difference in their day. Some of our families are visiting loved ones who have been in the hospital for a long time. Staying nearby means they get to participate in their care but it also means being away from home. If you like to cook and would like to support the patients and families at our guest house, please get in touch! We are looking for meals which are prepared in a clean environment, delivered to the Hackerman-Patz House and can be reheated easily. Our house has a microwave and toaster oven for the guests to reheat the meals. An ingredient list is required.
