The Cedars community news & events
To me, commitment is the foundation for growing a vibrant community.
We embrace these challenges, knowing that our work goes beyond simply preparing food. We strive to create a sense of home for our residents, ensuring every meal is a moment of connection and care.
It’s not just activities, it’s life.
The light clicked, and I just knew what I wanted to do. I wanted to become a Therapeutic Recreational Therapist working with children. As I was unaware of my future, behold, I would end up working with the opposite generation.
My Hometown.
There have been so many instances of caring for family, friends, teachers, etc. It has really been a gift working in my hometown and getting to return the favor to those who taught/cared for me.
My Mission: Providing Quality Care Seniors Deserve.
When I was a caregiver, I took great pride in being able to provide quality care for dementia residents that other aides had a hard time with. I found that it is in how you approach residents. I try to help them maintain their dignity and offer them choices.
How I Got Hooked into Senior Living
There were so many wonderful residents, with one in particular named Norma. She had my heart! I loved that she was always smiling, laughing, and happy to see us. She loved to sing and dance with anyone who was nearby. I loved Norma.
