Nobody audits the cafeteria.
Nobody audits the cafeteria. But they should. When staff spend half their break waiting in line, they return late, distracted, and rushed β and that lands on the patient. Hospital cafeteria flow is a clinical operations issue dressed in a hairnet. Staggered breaks, smarter menu forecasting, and grab-and-go design aren't perks β they're efficiency tools. The best-run hospitals treat staff fueling as part of care delivery, not an afterthought.
