Please note that my 4-star review above relates ONLY to the Food & Kitchen service at CCCG.
Hi, I have lived as a Resident at CCCG nursing home since September 2020, and still live here. I am a 71 year old woman. I know the Kitchen staff well and I am really pleased to give some "shout outs" to those I know best.
First, the morning full-time chef, Rose, is first rate in her job! It's a fine breakfast menu and Rose makes sure that the food is delivered hot and on time. Pretty impressive when you realize that this is about a 200-bed facility. And, there are many special menus each and every day either for dietary reasons, or at the requests of doctors, or for special requests to due any particular medical testing a Resident may be undergoing. Rose makes sure we all get what we need.
Add to that the fact that Rose is a lovely and caring person. She has always been ready to help me in any way possible.
Now, I do not know every member of the Kitchen staff by name, but I do know some by name who also deserve a "shout out." Specifically, Lloyd, who I think is the Assistant Manager of the Kitchen. He has never failed to make sure I get my many "special requests" for dinner and has even been known to personally deliver it to my room so it's not late. He's got a bit of a race to get from the lower lobby all the way up 3 stories to my 2nd floor room (at the very end of the hallway) and he always does it with a smile.
Another special staff member is Barbara who is a safe bet to pitch in where necessary whenever needed. Always with a smile and friendly attitude towards all of us. I'm beginning to think that her job is just do everything!
Also, I absolutely do not want to leave out those staff who are known for doing a yeoman's job throughout the entire process of "working on the line" for each meal and every day. They work from the very start to the very finish when all is cleaned and prepped for the next meal or the next day.
The men are Anthony, Luke, Norman and King. They are all great and very friendly toward the Residents. It's really an "all hands on deck" process in the Kitchen. The women are all part of the process along with the men as they work side by side in a rhythmic dance of their very own, all without crashing large, heavy food carts into each other, or more importantly, into a Resident! When I see them doing this work as I pass them on my way to the beautiful, large outdoor patio I just think "Wow, I'm glad I'm retired!"
So when speaking of the Kitchen staff service at CCCG as a whole I must add back in Barbara and the other women I see, but unfortunately do not know their names. In addition, there are the other men whose names I don't know. They all work alongside each other. I wish I did know all of their names especially as they are so darn friendly and always have a hello for any of us.
But I did warn you at the beginning that I am a 71 year old woman and I blame my inability to remember the name of all of the staff members at CCCG on my age. I gave you fair warning at the beginning of this review.
In selecting a nursing home I hope that you find my review useful for yourself or your loved one.
Overall, I am happy here. read more
