Thank you Lai An, but is more Chinese, and means the same, moreover, "入院" is too literary for this context and maybe lead to understanding just "enter the hospital", just my opinion for discussion...

neutral Adsion Liu : 已住院 is not good enough in sense of semantics, since this may say "has been already admitted for a period of time", while the source text means the subject has just been admitted but missed the time for scheduled Dinner/Meal...
