Labor and supply shortages, maintaining exceptional culinary and high-quality menus, clinical acumen, staying ahead of evolving technology, and streamlining operations to leverage existing dining platforms are daily challenges. “What pains the healthcare and hospitality industries are not going away; they are probably going to become more prevalent,” he says.
