Their dietary aide should also have the physical potential to prepare food, assist the residents in eating and serving meals, along with being able to handle kitchen equipment and also clean up after meals.

Working Routine Qualifications
The regular day of a dietary aide consists of working under the dietary manager and assisting residents when they need it. Extra work tasks may include passing around food trays to their designated rooms and at their designated times, following state and federal regulations concerning food safety, returning dirty dishes to the kitchen for cleaning and tidying up dining areas, receiving, and stocking supplies or food, following safety guidelines when working, and avoiding any food contamination by storing it properly.
Dietary aides working in health care facilities usually spend most of their time standing and walking around carrying out different tasks. During their day-to-day activities, a dietary aide may have to indulge in activities that involve lifting around 50 pounds in goods such as food supplies. Working in the kitchen may also mean having to deal with extreme temperature shifts, from extra heat in the cooking area to freezing temperatures when working in the walk-in-freezers.
