Center for Extended Care; Amherst, MA

Primary Responsibilities:



  • Food preparation

  • Tray-line

  • Dinning room needs

  • Sanitation

  • Restocking

There were some changes to my responsibilities during my placement. For example, I had to train two new employees.


Overall I would rate this site as very good.


I would recommend this site to other students because the employees and residents are very nice and I gained important on-the-job experience, that only an opportunity such as this could provide.


One aspect of this placement that I would change would be Interaction with the R.D's.


Advice I would give other students looking to pursue an internship would be to create relationships with the organization and professionals who work in their desired field.
