ABOUT OUR SUPER DIETARY MANAGER, JENNIFER GERMAN
You think you are on one track that makes sense, but then sometimes life throws you a curve. After more than two decades as a pharmacy technician, Jennifer German needed a change. She had spent years dispensing pharmaceuticals but believed there was a better kind of medicine she could provide — quality, nutritious food.
For more than 36 years, Jennifer has poured her love into preparing food for family and friends. She thinks too much food preparation is boring, but for her, good food is the spice of life. And that’s how she found herself as the Dietary Manager at Our House Assisted Living and Memory Care of Ogden.
There are a few things that she loves to prepare for the residents at Our House. Of course, there are things like Italian food, Mexican food, and all American comfort foods, but soups are Jennifer’s specialty.
To hear residents come in and tell Jennifer, “I look forward to the days and meals you prepare for us. It’s the highlight of my day.” Jennifer feels the same, those little acts of kindness and voices of appreciation are the highlight of her day and make serving the people of Our House of Ogden worth it.
