Dear Editor:
September 13 - 19 is National Assisted Living Week. This annual observance was established by The National Center for Assisted Living (NCAL) as a way to celebrate those who choose this type of living option and the caring, dedicated staff members who serve them; and to educate the general public about the importance and benefits of this type of long term care. This year's theme is "Caring is Essential."
As the owners and the management company of CrestRidge Senior Living in Dodgeville, we first want to express our thanks to our residents and family members for entrusting us with your care. We are privileged to walk beside you on your journey of aging.
We also want to express our deep appreciation to Brenda Welsh, RN BSN Campus Administrator; Sue Dull, LPN Care Coordinator, and all of the resident assistants, administrative staff, activity staff, dietary staff, housekeepers and maintenance technicians who provide the highest quality of care to our residents every day. The past six months have been especially challenging due to COVID-19, and we are so proud of your dedication and vigilance to keep our residents healthy, happy and engaged.
Our frontline staff members are the heart and soul of CrestRidge, and we're always interested in speaking to people with their kind of caring heart about joining our team. We can't provide high-quality services without high-quality people.
Visit crestridgedodgeville.com or call 608-935-0211 to learn more about who we are, what we do and why we do it. It's an honor to be of service to the families and residents who call CrestRidge Senior Living their home. Join us and find out how caring for others can change the way you see the world.
