COLLINGTON A KENDAL AFFILIATE
11.2020 - Current
- In the health care facility, I am accustomed to cooking foods in large quantities; most meals are consistent for all the residents
- However, as a cook I pay special attention to menus and keep various batches of food separate from other dishes that include special diets with varying instructions
- Because of some people with allergies and food sensitivities, diseases and those recovering from surgical procedures are often put on special diets that require exact ingredients.
- Manage a daily kitchen operation with 8+ staff members
- Oversee food preparation and production, ensuring food safety procedures are always 100%
- Interviewed, hired, trained, and directed staff members
- Placed orders to restock items before supplies ran out.
- Checked freezer and refrigerator prior to each shift to verify correct temperatures.
- Oversaw grill, stove, and oven, and cleaned equipment after every shift.
- Trained kitchen staff to perform various preparation tasks under pressure.
- Reduced food waste with strategic menu planning and inventory control techniques.
