Since Cinco de Mayo was celebrated yesterday, many accounts have pictures of there dressed up staff and Mexican fare to be posted. At the Dominican Sisters of Peace/Mohun Health Care, the holiday was brought about in a unique way. Some of the staff members at this Columbus, Ohio account are native to Mexico: Carlos, Marina, Antonio and Jose. Director of Dining Services, Paul Burckard allowed these staff members to use their heritage and creativity to create the menu for the residents. They cooked authentic food from their own recipes and helped to write the menu in Spanish. Below is the menu and a few pictures of the festive celebration!
