Navigating the challenges of aging is something I understand on a deeply personal level. Like many of you, I walked this road with my own family, especially when we discovered that my mother was affected by Alzheimer’s Disease. At the time, I wasn’t yet involved in senior living, so, like many families, we stumbled our way through, trying to apply logic to the most unpredictable and difficult of diseases. We thought, as a family, we could handle anything together. But we soon realized that Alzheimer’s was different.
When the chance came to enter the senior living industry, I embraced it as a way to honor my parents and share what I’d learned along the way. As I began to understand the complexities of caring for seniors in a community setting, I saw so many ways to help make this stage of life more fulfilling. My mother—whose mind faded even as her body remained strong—and my father—whose mind stayed sharp though his body weakened—showed me just how unique each person’s journey is. Their experience inspired me to adopt a guiding principle for all our team members: “Treat our residents as you would want your own mother treated.” Each day, I strive to make our work more than a business. It’s my mission to help seniors live fully and comfortably in their later years, surrounded by warmth, understanding, and compassion.
My goal is to be a good steward of the needs of our residents and their families, to support and encourage our dedicated team members, and to honor the trust that our investors have placed in us. Together, the team at Living Care Lifestyles is committed to going beyond expectations every single day. Thank you for allowing us to be part of this journey with you and your loved ones.
