This month, we’re celebrating one incredible milestone — 5 years with Candy Salmons! 💙

We asked Candy what the best part about working at Westerwood has been, and here’s what she shared:

💬 “The best part about working here at Westerwood is the team and the loving, caring way they interact and take care of the residents — and know family members by name. They get to know them whether they are long-term residents or just here to rehab and go home. NO BETTER TEAM THAN THE WESTERWOOD TEAM!!”

Please join us in congratulating Candy on 5 wonderful years of dedication, compassion, and teamwork! 🎉
