Job Summary

Our progressive and dedicated healthcare team strives to change the lives of our patients and provide exceptional care.

Part of that care is the care and love put into the food that our patients and staff enjoy while in our facility.

Requirements

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR

Simply put: HUMANS WHO CARE

Though we do need to meet some minimum requirements for the position such a High School Diploma or Equivalent, and a valid Food Handler's certification, we're really looking for people who bring their HEART to work.

If you have previous experience in the kitchen of a hospital or other large facility and/or have experience as a cook in a mental healthcare hospital environment, then your application to this position will be immediately moved to the shortlist of candidates.

Ideally, you'll bring at least three (3) years of experience as a cook in a healthcare or similar setting.

You'll showcase strong kitchen safety skills and be able to meet deadlines surrounding a very rigid serving schedule.

Being able to adjust recipes "on the fly" to achieve desired results is key to being a cook. That said, you'll need to be able to read and comprehend our recipes and instructions regarding prepackaged products.

The perfect candidate will be able to read, convert, and adjust mathematical measurements for recipe changes and development.

A substantial amount of knowledge using commercial kitchen equipment including slicers, mixers, and dishwashers.

Our patients, our community, and our co-workers RELY on us to be committed to their wellness,


Through prevention, intervention, treatment, and education, we can and we will make a difference not just here in Bakersfield, but throughout our extended communities.

You should have a current CPR certification when you apply or obtain certification prior to your start date.

If you don't have a current CPR certification, just let us know and we'll make sure you get it before you start -- and even cover the cost for you.

Additionally, you'll complete a "Handle-With-Care" Physical Restraint Technique Training during your orientation so that you know how and when to engage when such an event occurs.

BBHH encourages ALL to apply.

The position is an hourly, non-exempt, overtime-eligible position with a wage starting at $24.00 for all new hires. Automatic merit increases will apply annually based on annual evaluations.
