Dietary Manager
Supervise kitchen staff and cook.
Busy, busy! Training new employees, monitoring kitchen staff, cooks and dietary aides. Visiting with residents that live at the nursing home. Serving 3 meals per day for 125 people and staff.
Here's the first step for high school students
First finish school then set your goals. Visit some nursing homes and see the love many of these people need. That's why I went into working in nursing homes, because I love to cook and see the results when residents enjoy a meal. They mostly always look forward to meals, food is love to the soul to a lot of people.
"Cooking was hard, there were long hours. I worked in restaurants before starting in nursing homes. Work in different restaurants was hard, there was always the change in management, the chef would move things around, and there were too many bosses."
