What staff are saying.
It seems that everyone, or nearly everyone, here knows from their life experiences how important a smile, a cheery hello, and friends are to a happy life. Liza and I quickly made new friends and became part of the Norris Square Community. If you’re thinking about making a change in your life situation, I strongly suggest you give our Norris Square community a good hard look-over. I did and I’m very satisfied.
It’s not a feeling of I have to go to work, but it’s more a question of who do I get to work with today? Who do I connect with and work alongside?
My mother was a resident of one of PHS’ senior living communities. The care she received there was truly exceptional. When I was ready to return to work, I sought out a role with PHS specifically because of how well they treated her. Always eager to go the extra mile, and always seeking out ways to make our communities feel more inviting, our staff’s dedication to our residents’ quality of life is apparent in everything that they do.
I fell in love with the role and the mission to enrich the lives of older adults. When I went away to college, I would drive home every weekend to serve at Croixdale. Croixdale has always been my second home. I’m so grateful each and every day to continue to serve the residents and help staff with growth opportunities and PHS education assistance, just like I was able to take advantage of.
I’m grateful for Mill Pond: I feel the love from my coworkers as we work as a team. The residents are our inspiration. Above all, I thank God for the opportunity to honor him by serving those entrusted to my care.
I love caregiving. I love working here, I love what I do and I love the people here. My motto is ‘I was born to serve’ and that’s what I do.
I have so much respect and admiration for seniors, so it’s something that makes me feel fulfilled when I’m able to serve them, as they did for me when I was younger. Food brings people together, and I love watching them smile and laugh with each other in the dining room.
The first time I entered Timber Hills, it felt so much like home. There’s this comfort, warmth and peace that you feel. And from my first day, it didn’t feel like a job.
The best part of my job is helping someone find a home to call their own. I love watching residents grow within our communities. Hearing the laughter and seeing the smiles of residents just warms my heart to the fullest.
I try to be an example and inspire the residents here, that when you get up in the morning just be determined that you’re going to be happy. I also want to help make life meaningful for people so that they know they are cared for and loved. Presbyterian Homes makes my life meaningful by giving me a job that I absolutely love.
I love assisting immigrants in their new life in the U.S. I feel I make an imprint on their lives when I hear declarations of their gratitude. This inspires me to be diligent in tasks bestowed upon me. I feel honored to be part of PHS.
It is just really important, meaningful work. So if I can use the things I’ve been blessed with — whether it’s my family background or communication skills to break things down to ensure understanding and make people feel comfortable — then I feel I’ve helped a vulnerable population. It’s all about compassion and serving people who may be less fortunate. And as a faith-based ministry, it’s also family based: we’re all so close and have a personal connection with each other. We care about each other’s well-being and families. It’s just a very understanding and compassionate place to work.
God is good by providing a team that can share openly. We can pray for each other, carry loads for each other, and have fun together. I think that is the beauty of the PHS culture and PHS’s success.
Presbyterian Homes has played a big role in my educational journey. I will forever be grateful for the scholarships I received to keep chasing my dreams — to make the community a better place as well as honor God by enriching lives and touching the hearts of older adults. Now as an RN, I am still in the learning process, and whenever I have a question, someone is always there to inform me and educate me so that I become better.
I appreciate the rest of my life enrichment team and really enjoy meeting the residents and hearing their stories. I think about my grandma who lived in assisted living when she passed and how much she looked forward to the daily activities. I realized that I could make that thing, or host that event, or play that simple game with someone and totally make their day.
Here every expression of faith is met with grace. As the 4th largest nonprofit senior housing provider in the nation, there are plenty of opportunities to serve – from preparing meals to providing hospice care.
When you join PHS, you are among those striving daily to create a safe and welcoming environment for residents, guests, employees and volunteers. Our biblical framework and “Love One Another” Christian ministry focus guide every action and emphasize the PHS mission: To honor God by enriching the lives and touching the hearts of older adults.
