Food Service Worker (CAF,PT)

Loma Linda University Medical Center is a premier healthcare institution rooted in the teachings and healing ministry of Jesus Christ. Established as a Seventh-day Adventist faith-based organization, the center emphasizes compassion, excellence, humility, integrity, justice, teamwork, and wholeness in all its healthcare services and educational endeavors. Known for its commitment to holistic patient care and community outreach, Loma Linda University Medical Center integrates spiritual values with modern medical practices to offer exceptional care and foster healing environments for patients and their families. The institution upholds diversity and equal employment opportunities, passionately supporting a work culture where every employee feels valued and empowered. It maintains a non-discriminatory hiring process and ensures reasonable accommodations to qualified individuals with disabilities, reinforcing its dedication to inclusion, fairness, and respect.

The Food Service Worker role within this esteemed medical center plays a vital part in the smooth operations of the food service department, contributing to the overall patient and staff experience. This role is pivotal in ensuring the timely and accurate setup of trayline workstations, which are essential for efficient meal delivery across the facility. A significant responsibility includes the thorough cleaning and sanitization of pots, pans, dishes, and utensils used in food preparation and service. Maintaining a clean and sanitary kitchen environment is crucial not only for health and safety regulations but also to uphold the center's high standards of food quality and safety.

This position requires a diligent individual who is capable of working independently while adhering to strict sanitation protocols. The Food Service Worker must be adept at reading, writing, and following written and oral instructions. Applicants must also be able to distinguish colors and have sufficient hearing abilities to safely perform their duties with standard kitchen equipment. The role demands a Food Handler's Certification from the San Bernardino County Public Health Department within 14 days of hire, with a SafeServ Manager certification preferred as it surpasses the Food Handler’s certification in training depth and presentation.

By working in a faith-aligned environment, Food Service Workers at Loma Linda University Medical Center contribute not just to the feeding of patients, visitors, and staff, but also to the healing atmosphere that the institution strives to maintain. The role itself is an essential support function that intersects with multiple departments and services, enhancing the institution's mission to serve with compassion and excellence. For individuals seeking a position that offers meaningful work in a supportive, values-driven community, this opportunity offers not just employment but a chance to be a part of something bigger—helping to promote wellness and recovery through quality food service operations.
