The dining services
team at Huron County Medical Care are dedicated to providing the best
dining experience for their residents and they all work very hard at
maintaining a safe and sanitary kitchen in order
to provide this exceptional service. The director and assistant
director of dining services wanted to show their appreciation to the
staff during National Healthcare Foodservice Workers week. The special
week of recognition this year was October 3 thru the
9th. HCMCF dining services staff were showered with special
treats each day demonstrating the managers’ appreciation for all their
hard work and dedication to their residents.
On Monday donuts were provided with a note saying “We DONUT know what we would do without awesome employees like you!”
Tuesday each team
member wore a badge of honor showing just what their directors think of
them! It read “My boss thinks I’m kind of a big deal!” Many staff wore
them with pride throughout the rest of the week.
Staff “rocked” on Wednesday. Pop rocks were handed out with a memo telling them “You Rock!”
Thursday a best
dressed apron contest was held. Team members were encouraged to wear any
special or favorite apron of their choice. Office staff at the facility
were the judges and two employees were awarded
brand new uniform aprons with the facility’s new logo printed on them.
Friday closed out
the week of appreciation with “I Scream, You Scream, We all Scream for
this team!” ice cream bars. This was a special treat for the staff
because every time the assistant director has to
run to the store for food or supplies, the staff always request that
she bring back some Klondike bars which she always “forgets” to get for
them!
Many times dining
service staff work behind the scenes and do not get recognition for
their dedication. But during National Healthcare Foodservice Workers
week the staff took pride in their hard work as they
were in the spotlight and made to feel appreciated!
