“It’s always hard to place someone further away but hearing how she is doing its worth it. You have given her a chance when nobody would and thank you for that! I look forward working with all of you again. I also want to thank Ellie who traveled to meet her, and for a great communication. It made my job much easier!”
~ Sanda Tosto, Lead Case Manager, Central Vermont Medical Center
“When I arrived at MissionCare, I was welcomed by the wonderful team who instantly made me feel at home—a feeling I have not experienced in over twenty years. I am so happy to be given this opportunity and I am grateful for the staff and my newfound family. It truly warms my heart. Now I can get involved with so many activities and help the staff whenever I can. What they’ve created here is truly wonderful, not only for me but for the other residents and everyone who joins us in the future. This is a place I am happy to call home.”
~ Resident Donald (December 2024)
“When my sister joined the facility, I had the opportunity to observe the immense dedication by countless individuals across various roles. From maintenance staff to nurses and administrative personnel to the recreation team, each person has demonstrated remarkable commitment and care in their work. From day one, Chris Oldham, Jennifer Madison, and Heather Moore went above and beyond to ensure my sister's transition into the center was smooth and comprehensible, avoiding what could have been a daunting process. Once she was settled in, the nursing staff and social worker immediately hit the ground to address the challenges we faced. Our family sincerely hopes that the incredible skills and talents of these dedicated employees are recognized, as they are the building blocks and foundation for navigating whatever lies ahead.”
~ Elias, Brother of Resident (October 2024)
