Like most reviews which sometimes focus on the negatives I’ve decided to focus on the positives. I wouldn’t want thoughts on other areas of MC to get in the way of staff that should get a shout out. The first person in the forefront would have to be hands done the Director of food services, Cinquetta Rhodes aka Cin. Since her inception of joining MC the food quality and choices have been by far the best I’ve heard of. Also Cin has a personality that goes along with her work ethics. She’s always stops to say hello, how’s it going while heading off to her pride “the dining room and kitchen. No, I have not been able to join in any of the meals served but, I have to say I hear of all the delicious meal plans and say wow, my mother is eating pretty darn good. My mom, who’s has been a resident since 2023 has nothing but great things to about the food choices and Cin. I would like to also give a shout out to her staff who are all are so respectful and accommodating to the residents needs. Cinquetta is such an asset to MC and wish her continued success. I cannot let 3 more employees go unnoticed. First Miss Rene,and Miss Geraldine and Lisa Libretti. Seeing them first as you enter MC is always a good feeling. At all times these lovely ladies are professional and accommodating with family members and residents. Lisa, always stops to chit chat with my mother asking her how’s she’s doing which is always nice to hear. Thank you Cinquetta, Rene, Geraldine and Lisa. I hope my accolades do not go unnoticed.
