Spotlight On: Burke Rehabilitation Hospital

The Power Of Building Strong Partnerships With Our Clients

Morrison Healthcare has operated the foodservice at Burke Rehabilitation Hospital since 2019 and has built a strong partnership with their client during that time. In November 2022, the Burke Rehab team worked with their in-house engineering team to complete a $400,000 renovation of their dining café. The idea behind this renovation was to create a destination guests enjoy visiting. Tom Fahev, Director of Construction, and his team performed all construction work of the beautiful space. Once the project was complete, Tom felt it was time to hang up his hard hat and retire, as he had come full circle. Tom’s very first project at Burke had been to renovate the cafe 30 years prior.

The team hosted a soft opening of the space in January and offered complimentary meals to the staff for lunch and dinner. The soft opening was a huge success, so they moved forward with a grand opening in March and featured an omelet bar, pasta demonstration, and live sushi wrapping.

“My sincere thanks to the team at Morrison Healthcare for the world-class renovations to our café. The partnership and synergies of our teams is a true testament to the great folks that drive change each and every day. Morrison is not a vendor, but a partner, and part of the Burke Rehabilitation Hospital family.

From the moment you step through the beautiful sliding glass doors, you feel the culinary greatness that awaits. The innovative soft drink dispensers and variety of great coffees are just a few of the new additions. The Burke Construction team worked with the great minds at Morrison to deliver an outstanding product

Well done, and we’re looking forward to the future!”
