Beginning in 1936 Victor Cornelius was an innovator. He couldn’t find a
supplier for menus so he became one. Throughout his distinguished career,
Victor developed and manufactured many different products used in various
food service and hospitality related businesses across the nation.
In the
1970’s he discovered the need for a Tray Card system for use in Long Term
Nursing Homes to help dietary departments and their staff organize and serve
foods to their residents according to their prescribed diets.
These became the
standard of the industry by 1978. So much so that many of the states had
written the Victor Cornelius Diet Tray Card System into their statutes
governing Nursing Home and Long Term Care Facilities.
Today, we at Artisan Menu Covers, LLC. count it a great honor to carry on the
legacy of innovation from Victor. We have continued to service the Dietary
needs of Skilled Nursing and Long Term Care facilities through development
and manufacturing the first Dietary Tray Card System that is compliant with
the Medicaid Laws in the country. This system also incorporates, with
permission, the IDDSI Standard for food and drink texture and consistencies
for those residents with varying stages of Dysphasia.
These are not the only products manufactured by us. We have a very long
history in the manufacturing of Menu Covers and many other “Front of the
House” products for the restaurant and hospitality industry.
