Why do we do what we do? Telling our Story...
"It's not a job it's a calling and what greater honour is there than to serve the people in my own community! The Centre is a place that not only supports our community with its many programs and services but supports its employees as well. For me, the Centre provides a great work/life balance and co-workers whom I consider my second family. Not only does our team care for and support one another but they truly care for our clients. I feel this is what sets the Assisted Living Program at the West Elgin CHC apart from other programs and why I choose to stay and be a part of it." ~ AK, PSW
"I love helping those who can't always help themselves. Being there for someone at their lowest and making even a small positive impact is deeply rewarding and motivates me everyday. The Centre feels like home because of the amazing, supportive people who keep it running. Everyone is kind, approachable, and always willing to help, creating a safe and welcoming place to work and grow. The positive, easygoing atmosphere makes each day enjoyable. Even on tough days, the kindness and energy here lifts me up and reminds me why I love what I do. I am really grateful to be a part of a team so dedicated to making a difference." ~ YH, Support Worker, RN Student
"I'm driven by a passion for helping others in need. I have compassion for others, dedication, and empathy and want to make a difference in lives improving someone's quality of life. The Centre is a respectful workplace treating everyone with professionalism and consideration. I found a good team, like family. I am excited about the Centre's values and mission and its dedication to the community. It is a place with different cultures and creativities."~ YR, PSW
"I want to make a difference in someone's life as well as mine. To provide passionate care for someone/enhancing someone's life as well as them enhancing mine. I call the Centre home because its family, supportive, with amazing coworkers and amazing management". ~ HW, PSW
"The seniors in our community helped shape West Elgin and Dutton Dunwich into the places we are proud to call home today. They deserve our respect, gratitude, and support during their senior years. I consider it a priviledge to be there for them and giving back to those who gave so much. Thank you Betty Jo!" ! ~ TT, PSW
