ESSENTIAL DUTIES & RESPONSIBILITIES:

• Prepares food items, such as beverages, salads, and condiments for residents and employee feeding.
• Assists cooks as requested in the preparation and service of hot and/or cold foods.
• Maintains standards of safety and sanitation as established by the Department of Food & Nutrition and/or local, state and federal health agencies.
• Accurately serves all residents' diets as specified by physician’s orders and assures therapeutic menus are followed for each meal service.

JOB REQUIREMENTS

• High School diploma or equivalent
• Current Texas Food Handler Certification
• One year experience or equivalent in institutional food service, preferably in a health care setting.
• Must be able to read, write and understand English.
