Over the past year it has not been lost on me that there have been times where a staff member has had to work harder than usual, just due to changing staff and the intensity of demand that the job of managing the eight residents here requires. But it isn't just the work ethic that has caught my eye, but also the positivity that the staff has managed to keep up while shouldering their work. In fact unless you were watching closely, you would not believe that the status quo was any different, because the staff continue to treat their charges with respect, enthusiasm and dedication.
