Are You Ready to Join the Good Shepherd Team?
Good Shepherd Communities is a team based organization with a strong
commitment to person-centered care. Our team members are challenged to
embrace this vision, and carry it into every interaction with our residents,
our staff and the greater community. If you can say yes to the following,
you may be ready to join our Team:
I
value person-centered care, and I am ready to
focus first on each individual's unique personality and how they
wish to live each day.
- I value elders, families and staff, as integral
team members, and I am ready to work together to create
a fulfilling and meaningful life for all.
- I value self-led teams, and I am ready to
actively participate in teams that decide among themselves the most
appropriate individual and team responses to the needs and desires
of our elders.
- I value "home," as relating to each individual
heart's desire, and I am ready to strive to enable
the choices and quality of life elders enjoyed in their own homes,
and I am ready to respect each elder as an individual
who shares in decision-making.
- I value community, where members live, work and
socialize; I am ready to help create a community where our elders are
actively engaged and determine for themselves how to give and receive
within their friendships, household, neighborhood, city, state and
country.
- I value growth, in training (skills) and education (knowledge) as both means and end, and I am ready to continue my professional and personal growth.
