- Manage Patient Data: Maintain and update a patient dietary database, including special diets, food allergies, and personal preferences — accuracy is key.
- Keep It Safe & Sanitary: Uphold all safety, sanitation, and infection prevention protocols — because clean service is quality service.
- Be the Go-To Resource: Serve as the point person for questions, problem-solving, and training new team members.
- Fill in other open positions as needed.
