Meal Delivery

Medically tailored meals delivered to people who are critically or chronically ill.

Home-delivered, scratch-made meals at no cost

With Community Servings, you don’t have to manage a healthy diet alone.

Our clients receive a weekly home-delivery of fully prepared and medically tailored meals at no cost to them. Meals are prescribed by a team of registered dietitian nutritionists to treat specific illnesses, such as diabetes, cancer, heart disease, kidney disease, and many others. Our expert team designs medical diets that are high in healthy carbohydrates and low in sodium.

Research shows that receiving our evidence-based nutrition intervention can significantly improve dietary quality, support mental health, and reduce hospital admissions.

What's in a Delivery?

Meal deliveries contain food for five days, including:

Entrees, such as lemongrass-braised chicken, BBQ tofu, and turkey shepherd’s pie
Soups and stews, such as Italian wedding soup
Protein salads, such as hummus and tuna salad
Desserts, such as orange-ricotta cake
Plus, fresh fruit, snacks, and milk

Dedicated chefs prepare our delicious meals in-house in our Boston headquarters. We rotate the menu every week to provide clients a nourishing variety of entrees and sides, drawing upon seasonal foods of the highest quality and our love of excellent food.

Ingredients are sourced from our network of New England food partners, providing clients an eclectic array of local poultry, produce, beef, tofu, and fish.

How It Works

Delivery

We serve residents of Massachusetts and Rhode Island. Once a week, clients receive meals for five days. Clients residing outside of our delivery area may qualify for shipping. We can also provide meals for children under the age of 18.

How to Apply

Complete an application with help from a doctor or healthcare provider. The application has a “Medical Certification Form” for doctors or providers to fill out.
If you qualify, a Community Servings registered dietitian nutritionist will call with a few questions. The call is important. We need to reach clients before beginning meal delivery.
We will schedule your first meal delivery!

We accept client referrals from case managers, dietitians, primary care providers, social workers, and other healthcare providers. Prospective clients can refer themselves, as well, with a medical certification form completed by a provider. To enroll, access the application.
