Delivering Meals on Wheels Procedure
 
 
  1. Pick up the meals from Los Robles Hospital East Campus in Westlake Village on Saturday morning at 11:00AM.  Park in the front parking lot, in a visitor spot, and go through the front main entrance.  Tell the receptionist you are there for MOW pick-up.  You will need to go to the cafeteria to pick up the food. 
 
Los Robles Hospital East Campus
150 Via Merida, Westlake Village, CA 91362
  • : (805) 370-4420
 
 
  1. Total time shouldn’t take more than about 1.5 hours – you will deliver  meals to about 7 – 10 recipients at their homes/apartments. 
 
  1. You are encouraged to do this with friends or family – especially children as it is a very rewarding experience for everyone. 
 
  1. Make sure you, or someone with you, has a GPS unit to obtain directions to each home. This is MANDATORY.   The hospital does a pretty good job of putting the list of recipients in sequence/ order so you are not bouncing all over Thousand Oaks.
 
  1. You will be delivering both HOT and COLD meals in most cases. The HOT meals are VERY hot when you take them out of the hot container that Los Robles will provide you. You may wish to bring a pot holder, oven mitt or glove to handle them.
 
  1. If someone is NOT at home, and they leave a picnic style food container by the front door (with ice in it), then it is OK to leave their order even though they are not home.  On the rare occasion someone is NOT at home, and there is no container provided by the front door, then you have no choice but to return their meal/s to Los Robles.  In some cases, the residents are resting and they leave the front door open, so you can deliver the food inside.
 
  1. After you deliver the last meal you then have to go back to Los Robles to return the hot container and the cold container they provide.
 
  1. In the event you are unable to deliver the meals on the week you signed up for, PLEASE contact Cristina Auda,  so other arrangements can be made.
 
Cristina Auda  -  MOW coordinator – if you have questions please contact her. Contact info in Clubrunner.

We hope you will find the experience very rewarding.
