Christine Toupal attended Kind Dining training April 9-11 facilitated by Cindy Heilman, CEO of Higher Standards and Creator of Kind Dining. Kind Dining is a meal service method based on hospitality and “bringing warmth to the table.” This program will provide staff the knowledge and tools necessary to enhance the dining experience for residents by promoting person-centered care and nurturing a healthy sense of community and service. Christine Toupal will train the staff of Renville Health Services in the concepts, practices, and standards of Kind Dining. Renville Health Services is committed to improving the dining experience for our residents to reduce the number of residents experiencing unintended or unexplained weight loss.
