during the April MCMC Board of Trustees meeting. C.A.R.E.S stands for Continuous
Improvement, Respect and Respond, Engagement and Safety.

Tim has been employed by MCMC for two years, starting as Food Aide followed by
promotion to Cook. Over the past two years, Tim has been a tremendous asset to the
Long-Term facility. Tim goes above and beyond his duties to please the residents as
well as the staff. He always has a positive attitude and is always willing to help in any
way he can, whether it is covering a shift or helping a fellow co-worker. Tim is a great
example of a team player. Tim is an excellent cook and the Dietary Manager and
Assistant Manager often receive complements from residents and staff about how much
they enjoy his food. Tim always asks each resident how their meal was and how it could
be improved.

Tim was born and raised in Raton, so he grew up with some of the Long-Term care
residents. He is married with four stepchildren and twelve grandchildren. Tim enjoys
being outdoors enjoying nature, hunting, fishing or just about any outdoor sport.
