Employee Spotlight:

10 questions with each of our Team Coordinators

We are kicking off our monthly Employee Spotlight series with our talented Team Coordinators: Antionette, Lee, Nickey, and Destiny. As team leaders who excel at providing resident care, they model caregiver best practice, help train and mentor new caregivers, support our nursing staff, and ensure our residents receive the highest quality of care.

Enjoy getting to know our team coordinators and learning what makes English Rose a special place to work. This week, meet Lee!

Name: Lee

Job title: Team Coordinator, Gleason Knoll Home

How long have you worked at English Rose?
About a year and half

What do you like most about your job?
Spending time with the residents. It honestly doesn’t feel like “work.” It feels like their home. I seriously love them and look forward to seeing them.

What do you like to do when you aren’t working?
I love to decorate cakes. I have done it for fun and professionally for over 13 years.

What’s a fun fact about you many people may now know?
I enjoy gaming. I don’t look like a gamer and I’m not the best, but I love gaming with my two boys.

Where’s your favorite place in the world?
Anywhere my kids are. I have three kids, two boys who are 18 and 11, and a daughter who is 9.

What is your motto or personal mantra?
Make the very best of everything.

Three words to best describe you?
Creative – Compassionate – Honest

What is your favorite food?
Anything spicy. I especially love hot pot!

Which of English Rose’s core values is your favorite and why?

Presence. I believe you have to be present for each person, in order for the other two values, relationships and excellence, to work. If you’re not “here” it’s not going to work. You have to give this all of your energy and attention.
