Congrats, Jenny!
🏆 Congratulations to Jenny Bell, Social Worker for Broadmead! Jenny is Broadmead's first "Above. Always." Champion of the Month (formerly known as Team Member of the Month).
Jenny is being recognized for her exceptional responsiveness and dedication to resident well being. When a resident expressed the desire to return home earlier than planned due to an approaching snowstorm, Jenny swiftly and skillfully expedited the discharge process. She coordinated all necessary details in an impressively short amount of time, ensuring the resident could leave safely and confidently. Her proactive approach, thoughtful communication, and calm follow through in a time sensitive situation highlight her commitment to outstanding service.
Jenny’s colleagues admire the tireless effort she brings to her work each day. She consistently goes the extra mile to ensure residents receive the very best care, and her dedication leaves a meaningful impact on the entire team. Coworkers value her extensive knowledge, resourcefulness, and determination. Whether problem solving, supporting teammates, or advocating for residents, Jenny is a dependable force who elevates everyone around her.
Residents and their families describe Jenny as a steady, reassuring presence who goes above and beyond to meet their needs. They appreciate her ability to handle unexpected requests with grace and efficiency, along with her friendly disposition. One family shared deep gratitude for how Jenny seamlessly organized an early discharge on short notice, demonstrating not only her competence, but also her genuine care for the people she serves.
Jenny says, “I’ve enjoyed working with older adults since high school, when I first volunteered at Keswick Rehab and then worked in Assisted Living dining. After 25 years in social work, I’ve learned that the core of this role is active listening, understanding both spoken and unspoken needs, and advocating for the residents. I value the daily connections with residents and families and the teamwork that helps us work toward one shared goal: supporting residents and improving their quality of life.”
Thank you, Jenny, for your dedication to the Broadmead community!
