04/20/07

Six Team members from the Beebe Medical Center Nutritional Services Department recently passed the ServSafe food-safety examination. ServSafe is a nationally recognized education and certification program administered through the National Restaurant Association Education Foundation to those working in the restaurant and food service industry.

"The ServSafe certification is not a requirement in the State of Delaware," says Kathi Fryling, Director of Nutritional Services at Beebe Medical Center. "But food safety is so important to us at Beebe that we want to make sure our nutritional staff is well trained and keeps to the highest standards."

Currently, 35 percent of Beebe Medical Center's Nutritional Services team has earned certification, with others moving through the education process. Team members who have recently passed the ServSafe examination for certification are:

Linda Hussong
Robert Lengle
Geraldine Matthews
Missy Richardson
Susan Strohm
