Garnett Place

I have worked at Garnett Place almost 4 years now and it is a great place to work. The building is older but it has a home type feel that just makes you feel comfortable and welcomed. So many of the employees genuinely care about the residents and will do anything they can to help them. The residents are there for each other as well, and it really is like a family. I actually enjoy going into work everyday and love being able to help the residents with whatever I can.

It has been so reassuring this past year, that my parents are good hands. How can I know that living 2 time zones away? The center staff calls me and returns my calls, and when I visit (expectedly or unexpectedly ) my experience at Garnett Place is exactly how I was informed. The staff communicates with each other to give residents the care they need. The staff doesn’t pretend to know everything but are diligent about getting answers. Garnett Place has brought resources in that residents can confidently use in house. Everything at Garnett Place is not perfect and they don’t pretend that it is - healthcare is a tough business- but when it comes to caring for my family, I can count on them.

Today is my third day in training. I feel more comfortable and relaxed working with coworkers so far. There is a system of communication and coordination between management and workers. Greatest of this, residents are treated with respect, and in time.
