St. John's hospital is a small hospital in Lakeview, FL. St. John's began a new process to make sure patients receive the hottest meals possible. St. John's food service manager plans to deliver meals in bulk to three recently installed serving stations in the hospital. From the serving stations, the food will be reheated, and meals will be placed on individual trays, placed on a cart, and served to the patients on the different floors and wings of the hospital. 
The three serving stations have been strategically placed throughout the hospital for optimal efficiency. The table below presents the location name and the meal capacity at each location.
