Specialized home chefs - an asset for any institution

Home chefs specialize in cooking in retirement and nursing homes, institutions for people with special needs or other similar facilities. They have several years of professional experience and are characterized by extensive organizational skills and leadership qualities. The expectations and requirements of kitchen staff in residential kitchens have changed considerably over the last few decades. The wishes, preferences and needs of care home residents should always be recognized and ideally implemented. They are therefore also an important interdisciplinary point of contact when it comes to nutritional issues, eating habits and quality of life. Communication is therefore a key issue for home chefs. They take on the planning and implementation of individual kitchen projects and guide the kitchen staff. They create concepts for catering, food types and diets, always taking into account the needs of the clients. In addition to specialist knowledge, leading chefs in homes and institutions also acquire comprehensive know-how in the areas of leadership, organization, marketing, organization, project management and motivation during training as a home chef. The course is therefore a benefit across the board for the home kitchen, the kitchen staff, the residents and also for the home management.
