1 Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) Penn Hospital Therapeutic Kitchen Why we have a procedure? Therapeutic Kitchen Environments (formerly referred to as Activities of Daily Living Kitchens) are predominately but not solely used by Occupational Therapists to provide assessment and therapeutic intervention in both inpatient and designated community settings. The purpose of the inpatient therapeutic kitchen is to provide service users with the opportunity to engage in purposeful and meaningful activity whilst they are an in-patient within The Black Country Partnership Foundation Trust. The kitchen can be utilised for assessment and therapeutic intervention purposes on either a 1:1 or a group basis. The objectives of the Penn Hospital Therapeutic Kitchen SOP are as follows: To ensure safe, compliant and consistent practice across inpatient kitchen environments in line with current food handling legislation and guidance. To outline the procedures, arrangements and standards required within inpatient therapeutic kitchen environments. To provide a safe, effective and well utilised therapeutic environment for all that utilise our services. This SOP is not exhaustive guidance and therefore any person unsure should speak to the most senior member of Occupational Therapy team available at that time.
