What inspires people to work with food? Over the years, we’ve heard a lot of stories from our chefs and managers, but one of our Chefs turned Food Service Director, Shannon DeLeur stands out in a recent interview with our friends at ChefWorks – our best kept secret in keeping our employees looking as fresh as our food. Shannon says:
“This job is about being honest, transparent and being a human being,” she said. “You find commonalities. You have a genuine conversation with a patient and try to take them out of the mindset that they’re in a hospital. Good, nutritious food can do that. And it’s extremely rewarding when someone says to me, ‘This is really, really good.’ That’s when we know we’ve made their lives a little bit easier.”
