You Miss 100% of the Shots You Don't Take
This week is Environmental Services Week. A time to honor and pay tribute to the outstanding housekeepers and laundry workers throughout all our facilities. They work tirelessly to provide a clean, safe, and comfortable environment for all our residents.

The Bookcase
For the past several years, I have been on a journey as an STNA. I began blogging about my journey from day one. Although I am still on that journey, I am also on another journey. An administrator journey.

Leading from Within
This week was my first full week back at a building as an Administrator. I started with Foundations back in 2002 and had been an Administrator at several buildings, moved into the role of Acquisition Coordinator and currently I'm Vice President of Culture.

We Shine as a Team
Angel Pahssen, an amazing STNA and leader at Sidney Care Center in Sidney, Ohio, reached out to me yesterday and said the following about her facility...

TOGETHER we are STRONG
Crystal Brown, an amazing STNA and leader at Pine Grove in Geneva, Ohio, sent me the above pictures of her Care Team.

Real Heroes
I'm not traveling to buildings for awhile due to the Coronavirus. I sent an email out to the STNA's asking them to take a picture of a staff member at the building that exemplifies our Culture of Care and tell why they do.

Almond Windmill Cookies
I spent the day with some of my favorite people! STNA's, frontline staff, and residents.

You Are These Things
I spent the day at Hickory Creek of Athens, our 114-bed facility in The Plains, Ohio, just outside of Athens.

They Just Shine
I went to Oak Pointe Nursing & Rehabilitation Center in Baltic. If you don't know where Baltic is, it's in the heart of Ohio Amish Country.

Living for Something
I spent the day at Siena Gardens Rehabilitation & Transitional Care, our 99-bed facility in Southeast Cincinnati. Stella Burnett is the administrator there and is doing a wonderful job.
