Respond to : The similarities for healthcare, schools and correctional facilities are that they are all cooking large quantities or groups of people. All of those facilities usually have nutritional requirements- for instance healthcare facilities and schools often focus on healthy options. They all usually follow menus as well, offering a set schedule of menu items that appeal to most people. The differences is that schools and healthcare facilities also focus on customer service and quality as well. Most prisons have budgets and opt for cheaper options and focus on feeding a group of people with little to no say in quality and menu choices. Schools also follow budgets and schools in nicer neighborhoods often have a more varied selection due to a larger budget. They all must follow food handling safety guidelines, properly cooking and serving food
