admin – Food Safety Solutions

Food Safety Services was already in place when I came last year. I have continued with the program as it works so well. Nothing is more important than food safety for the children – their sanitation, monitoring and training are amazing. English is a second language for many of my staff members. We have found our employees come with different levels of food safety knowledge when they start. Tricia and her team work hard to help everyone grow their knowledge and confidence while training them consistently for our mission to feed kids safely. They also keep me abreast of new procedures coming down the pike and bring my attention to things that are important in my district. I know that I’m not alone in my belief that we must serve trust as we serve the meals – and that’s such a relief.

I adore Tricia. Our involvement with Food Safety Solutions gives me peace of mind and is well worth the investment. Tricia is a true professional with integrity, responsiveness and holds customer service at a level that is rare. She also recognizes that each district has individual needs and doesn’t offer a cookie cutter program. When I pick up the phone to call Tricia, she will find a resolution, period. Because she is also involved in the School Nutrition Association, she is always a step ahead with regulations and changes in protocol. The training for my staff is comprehensive and fun – they all love and respect her and are better employees for her involvement and input. I sleep well at night now that her program is in place.

In terms of what we do as Food Service Directors – safety is the most important facet of our job. We serve an “at risk” population that depends on us to make sure we are doing all that we can to keep them healthy. Food Safety Solutions provides non-negotiable value with products, custom programs and staff training. Tricia and her team don’t just show up and sell products – they’re involved and you can’t get this total package anywhere else in the marketplace.

As FSD’s, we are expected to have the answers for a huge variety of tasks – and the way to manage those expectations is to surround yourself with partners you can depend on. Food Safety Solutions gives me a wide array of products and knowledge that is important in every step of our program. Truly a “one stop shop” and Tricia is my food safety partner in every sense and I consider her invaluable and so does my team.

The monitoring of our food and inventory pays for the cost of the program and the on-site training of staff keeps the importance of food safety in their minds at all times. The personal connection with Tricia and her team means I don’t have to worry about overages/shortages in inventory or food safety and training – this program is absolutely invaluable to me with such a large district.

If food safety comes before minimal cost saving, this is the company for you. It’s not just about chemicals – it’s about service, responsiveness and support. She is my second set of eyes to ensure that my staff is aware and better trained in food safety and that my inventory is continually monitored for efficient use and proper handling. The fact that it is being done by someone who understands our industry and is involved in our association is such a bonus. Tricia is proactive, responsive and understands. It is very difficult to be at every school site, every day. Implementing this program gives me the assurance that food safety protocol is standardized and in place.
