Staff Testimonials
From the familiar faces that I have seen continually over the years, I am assured that people like working at Calvin. I can highly recommend Calvin Community as a place where the dignity and welfare of residents is ably provided for.
I applied to Calvin Manor in May of 1978 and was hired as a Dietary Aide under the supervision of Patricia McCaughey at $2.30 per hour. I was 19 years old. I worked my way through the dietary department in various positions from dietary aide to morning cook, evening cook, day supervisor, evening supervisor, assistant food service director and then in 1999 Food Services Director. I always like to say that I have grown up at Calvin. When I started I was a 19 year old newlywed and now I am a grandmother of 3. Calvin has been my home away from home for 33 years. I have seen many residents come and go and have seen many changes that Calvin has gone through. Calvin has aged very gracefully in the Beaverdale neighborhood. I like to refer to us as the “biggest Beaverdale brick.” We have many long term employees here at Calvin which tells you it’s not only a great place to live, but also a great place to work. I have seen parents who lived at Calvin and now their children have chosen to call Calvin their home. Calvin will continue to grow and provide great care to the residents and I plan on being here to be a part of it. In 2010 I received my service award for 30 years; I plan on being the first employee to hit 50 years.
I volunteered as an intern with the Activities Department at Calvin Community this past summer and had an invaluable experience there. As a social work student in college, I wanted to see what it would be like to work in a long-term care facility and chose Calvin simply because it seemed like a nice place. After my first day at the facility I realized that Calvin is much more than just a nice place. Its relatively small size and home-like setting allowed me to get to know many of the residents and staff on more than just a first-name basis. Everyone I met was incredibly welcoming and made me feel like part of the family. The staff treat the residents with so much dignity and worth and the level of care is very high. They all go above and beyond in fulfilling the residents’ wants and needs and give them constant care and attention. The Activities Department always has fun and engaging events planned for the residents from Wednesday afternoon Bingo to music programs and movie showings. The residents of Calvin come from all different backgrounds and have amazing stories to tell and wisdom to share. I learned a lot from working at Calvin and am glad to have been a part of this loving and caring family.
I came to Calvin in 2012 as Director of Nursing in the Health Care Center after spending the past 20 years of my nursing career in long term and skilled facility care. I came here because I knew of Calvin’s long standing reputation in regards to giving good care, it’s stable and excellent leadership, and it’s Christian-based philosophy in serving residents and employees. I have not been disappointed in this decision. From my first arrival at the receptionist desk for my interview to my ongoing daily interactions, I have found nothing but love, acceptance, and genuine care and concern among and between the residents and employees at Calvin. I have worked at the fanciest and newest of communities in my long term care nursing career, but nothing takes the place of true care and concern for both the resident and employee. The care and concern is shown in truly delivering person centered care on a daily basis to those we serve, without a lot of fanfare or advertisement of providing such. Care and concern is shown by the Administration Team and Board of Directors in allowing the number of staff truly needed to deliver what we say we are going to deliver to the persons we serve. Care and concern is shown in the investment made in the Activities Department to truly provide the staff and structure needed to keep our beloved elders engaged in whatever type activities they choose. Care and concern is shown to our employees on a daily basis with a collaborative, positive, and problem solving approach to any issues an employee may be having. The love and compassion at Calvin is seen daily with our extensive blend of employees from across the globe, working effectively and joyfully with their coworkers and with our beloved residents. I truly have found my ‘nursing home’ at Calvin Community. I am so proud to tell anyone that will listen I work here, serving our beloved elderly and wonderful blend of caring, giving, committed staff in the heart of Beaverdale.
