Touchpoints at Bloomfield held their  5th Annual Fry-a-Turkey Event for residents and staff.  Deep fried turkeys and sides were prepared by food service staff. Members of the Touchpoints at Bloomfield team made their own signature and famous homemade side dishes to be sampled and judged by iCare Health Network’s Mike Landi and Gwen Cannon and resident Cathy L.  Food Service Director Paul DeMaida took First Place with his winning Rosemary and Bacon Corn Bread. 

“The rehab team is great! They helped me to be up and independent so quickly, I made it home in one week. At 85 years old, many people did not think that was possible! I feel ready and confident to go home but more importantly my family feels ready. I will continue to recover by coming back to Touchpoints Rehab Outpatient Center. Touchpoints at Manchester will always be my first and only choice.”

In an annual tradition, the Touchpoints at Bloomfield team hosted and served a Thanksgiving meal to a packed house of 100 guests at the Bloomfield Senior Center. Food was served by Director of Food Services Paul DeMaida and other members of the Touchpoints at Bloomfield leadership team. More pictures in the full post!
