Honoring Teresa Heckman, a Director of Nursing at The Villas
Throughout my father’s three years at The Villas, Teresa has always been willing to hear any concerns that I have had, and more importantly, she acts on them immediately. I genuinely appreciate Teresa's expediency and thoroughness in addressing situations that I bring to her attention. I have full confidence in the care my father receives, as I have personally experienced Teresa’s involvement with not only my father, but also with the staff on the unit.
Since moving here, we have enjoyed the lifestyle, the friendly atmosphere, the volunteer opportunities, the activities, the beauty of the campus and its facilities, and, most of all, the peace of mind that comes with knowing we have a home for the rest of our lives.
We moved here in 2016 to have a more abundant life. Little did we know our life would be overflowing! Our lives have been enriched by all the God-given gifted people around us. We look forward to each new, exciting day—new friends, new activities, new food!
Kim is a pleasure to see on weekends in Jones Serenity Circle. She always knows what's going on with Mom and is quick to report it when I visit. As the number of residents continues to grow, I'm sure the demands do also, but you wouldn't know it by Kim's sunny attitude.
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.
