Watercrest Senior Living Group Celebrates Employee Dedication
This month, Watercrest Senior Living Group took the opportunity to honor the hard-working members of its team by hosting an Employee Appreciation Day. This event was spread across various Watercrest Senior Living Communities located in the southeastern United States, from Florida to Virginia. The celebration was a heartfelt recognition of the dedication and commitment that associates show daily in providing quality care for seniors.
In Santa Rosa Beach, the community threw an unforgettable bash featuring an outdoor cookout, axe throwing, a lively dance party, and a selection of fun yard games. Meanwhile, the associates at Watercrest Winter Park enjoyed a delightful meal arranged by the Asia Kitchen food truck, demonstrating the company’s focus on not just providing excellent service to seniors, but also creating a sense of community among their staff.
The Villages of Central Florida had their own unique way to celebrate as well. Watercrest Buena Vista hosted a housewarming party to warmly welcome both new residents and associates while its neighbouring community, Watercrest Spanish Springs, organized a charming ice cream social. This sweet event aimed to express gratitude towards associates for their exceptional leadership and continued service to the residents.
Kim Haddon, Executive Director of Watercrest Santa Rosa Beach, elaborated on the celebration: "The strength of our Watercrest family of associates is evident in each and every Watercrest community from South Florida to Virginia. Each day our associates model our Watercrest mission, which is to welcome, to care, to serve. This Employee Appreciation Day was a wonderful opportunity to express our gratitude for everyone’s unwavering commitment to our seniors."
Apart from the festive atmosphere, Watercrest Senior Living Group has impressively maintained its status as a Great Place to Work for seven consecutive years. This accolade, awarded by the Great Place to Work Institute in partnership with its senior care collaborator, Activated Insights, signifies a workplace culture defined by trust, pride, camaraderie, and professional growth opportunities. The ability to foster such an environment speaks volumes about the initiatives put in place to ensure a satisfying work experience for employees at all levels, reinforcing the management’s commitment to excellence.
