They even pointed out some things that they do in rooms above and beyond the expectations."

    When we presented the food service module to our current staff, they were very receptive. We even received good feedback from our otherwise quiet teenage dishwashers. The material is so versatile and can easily be accommodated for any center. We are very excited to have this educational material to share with our staff. The amount of time and resources on the part of our management staff will be greatly reduced.
