Hospital food service software

SemoRepas: patients choose their meals, hospitals waste less

SemoRepas runs the entire food service of your healthcare facility: patients choose their meal on a tablet in their own language, the kitchen cooks what will be eaten, nurses check the tray at the bedside, dietitians track malnutrition and management finally sees the cost of every patient-day.

Six problems your current software does not see

Ordering software sends meals to the kitchen. SemoRepas makes sure every patient eats what they should, safely and without waste.

Waste

Cook what will be eaten

Headcount forecasts, trays cancelled in time for discharges or fasting, leftovers measured at clearing.

Safety

The wrong tray is stopped at the bedside

Tray card and wristband scan, allergens computed from recipes, IDDSI textures, automatic nil-by-mouth.

Malnutrition

Detected and followed

Screening at admission, real intake recorded in one tap, dietitian alerted as soon as a patient eats less.

Satisfaction

The patient chooses

On a tablet or phone, with photos, in French, Arabic or English. A chosen meal is an eaten meal.

Family

Included, not ignored

What not to bring, declaration of food brought in, companion meals ordered and paid on mobile.

Hygiene

Proven, not on paper

Temperature logs on tablet, sample dishes, and patients exposed to a batch found in minutes.

SemoRepas FAQ

What is hospital food service software?

It manages patient meals from the diet prescription to the cleared tray: meal choice, kitchen production, distribution, food safety and costs. SemoRepas covers the whole chain for clinics, hospitals and healthcare facilities.

How much does SemoRepas cost?

Hosted in Tunisia, the software starts at 12 TND per bed per month (minimum 1,000 TND per month), plus cloud hosting and backups (450 to 1,200 TND per month depending on size) and a one-off setup of 8,000 to 15,000 TND. Installed on your premises, the licence is bought once, with yearly maintenance. The simulator on this page computes the exact cost for your number of beds and compares it with your gains.

How does SemoRepas reduce food waste?

Patients choose what they like, the kitchen cooks from forecasts, trays are cancelled in time for discharges, fasting or food brought by the family, and leftovers are measured to improve menus.

Does SemoRepas work without Internet?

Yes. The patient and nurse apps keep working offline and resynchronise later; a local server can run the whole facility during an outage, and backup tray cards are printed as PDF.

Is the software available in Arabic?

Yes, in Arabic (right to left), French and English, with text-to-speech and pictograms for patients who read little.

Do we need a server in the facility?

Not if you choose hosting in Tunisia: we host and back up everything, and hosting is billed monthly with the subscription. If you prefer to install it on your premises, a single Linux server is enough: 4 cores and 8 GB up to 100 beds, 8 cores and 16 GB up to 300 beds, 16 cores and 32 GB beyond.
