Diane Perkins is the Food Service Manager at Southern Tier Meadows. She is not only the best cook we have had at STM, but exceptional in times of crisis! Diane consistently volunteers to deal with crisis situations as they arise with residents and handles them with excellent judgment and compassion. Prior to being hired at STM a year ago, she had no experience working in this field and with our sometimes trying population! She is a natural in this field and very quickly gained the trust and respect of our residents and staff. She does not shy away from situations that would be overwhelming to even the most seasoned veterans! Thanks, Diane, for all of the advocating that you do on a daily basis to ensure that our residents are getting the care that they need and deserve. Congratulations!
