I have worked at St. Paul's since June 2006. I was a Universal Worker at The Heritage for three years and then moved up to The Ridgewood as a Personal Care Attendant. I have passion for my job. I enjoy caring for our residents–they are like family to me. I enjoy my co-workers, who are also like family to me. We all work together to get the job done!
After more than 20 years in long-term care, I have experienced a wide range of facilities, each with its own strengths and challenges, but none compare to the one I am part of today. St. Paul’s truly surpasses all others through its unwavering commitment to compassion, dignity, and excellence in care. The sense of community here—among residents, families, and staff alike—creates an environment where people are genuinely valued and respected. It is not just a place of care, but a place of pride, purpose, and belonging, and I am honored to be associated with a facility that sets such a high standard.
Honoring Mike Allen, a Director of Life Enrichment at The Villas
Mike listened carefully when, as family members, we asked if an improvement could be made to include Sunday afternoon hymns on channel 1851, using sites that provide familiar hymns with music. This has become a very positive time of worship and sing-along for my aging mom, whose Love Language has always been music. I have shared the new program with several folks on my mom’s floor, and they are also enjoying and appreciating Mike's responsive approach to a family’s/resident's request.
As a family, we appreciate Sheila and her caring ways. She listens attentively and shows genuine concern in difficult situations such as Mom’s recent hospitalizations. Thanks to you, Sheila, for the way you combine professionalism and loving concern.”
