Ricardo is an employee who always goes the extra mile in his daily duties and sometimes others duties! said Andrew Punchard, director of nutritional services at Gordon Hospital. Ricardo never complains and is always willing to shoulder the workload and do the right thing at all times. He is organized and systematic in his approach to his workday and has been engaged in new menu planning and ordering responsibilities, which he executes without error. He is a great employee and very well deserving of this accolade.
I value that Gordon is a faith-based organization, said Santizo, and we have an almost family-like feel in the kitchen. I feel I belong here and I am appreciated for what I do daily. This is the best job I have had since coming to the USA.
