We’ve enjoyed sharing our wellness team with you as we celebrated National Activity Professionals Week! It has been so sweet to see all of the love in the comments and the support from their coworkers, thank you for sharing all of the kind words. ❤️ Last but not least is our Wellness Director.

✨Meet Bonnie✨
As you may have seen, Bonnie celebrated her 50 year anniversary with Benedictine last fall! She was asked what this team means to her and why she enjoys activities. Bonnie shared, “I consider myself a leader, not a supervisor. I want to be with each of the staff providing all aspects of care. This week when we invited law enforcement in to spend time with the people we serve is just one example of the bond we have with our community! And when we have family celebrations, it strengthens the love we all share. It gives me so much joy to provide opportunities for the residents, friends and the community to have these special moments together!”

Thank you, Bonnie, for your leadership, dedication, and living our Core Values!

✨Meet Danita✨
Danita is another long-term staff member with Benedictine, celebrating 28 years! She was a CNA for most of her career, joining the activities staff just about two years ago. When asked about what always makes the residents smile, she said games like corn hole and target practice. But more importantly, it’s when the staff join the residents to create laughter and fun. Thank you, Danita, for your dedication and sharing smiles!

Another incredible milestone on this team: MarJane has been with us for 19 years! When asked what the activities mean to our residents, she said “It makes their world a little bigger.” Thank you, MarJane, for living our mission of creating inclusive communities.

✨Meet Lilly✨
Lilly has worked in the activities department at Benedictine for an amazing 27 years! Her favorite activity to lead is reminiscing with a group. "Hearing their stories and laughter is the best and seeing them sharing their memories with each other." She also enjoys assisting with planning and leading crafts, as it is a joy to see their creativity and hidden talents. "Working here has made me a better person, bringing more gratitude and humility to my life." Thank you, Lilly, for your dedication and helping our residents live well and with purpose!

Today we held a Law Enforcement Appreciation social, welcoming the Dickinson Police Department and Stark County Sheriff's Office to join our residents for cake and coffee. We also enjoyed the very special visitor Myria 🐶🖤

Thank you all for everything you do in our community to protect and serve! Our residents enjoyed your company today.

✨Meet Emily✨
Emily has been a wellness coach with Benedictine for 3 years. This is her story of what inspired her to work in activities: "Working as a CNA in Minnesota, I wanted to do more for those I took care of because they do not get the full life experience living in isolation and many having no family members visiting. I found recreational therapy as a positive outlook for them to connect with others and to get their social/emotional needs met while having fun doing things they enjoy with other people."

Thank you, Emily, for your compassionate care!

✨Meet Ashley✨
Ashley started with Benedictine nearly 10 years ago, first on our culinary team and then became the first Wellness Coordinator at Benedict Court. Using her previous activity experience, she has built an incredible monthly wellness program for our assisted living tenants. She says the most rewarding part of her job is making connections with the tenants in a personal way; in our small close-knit community, they all become her family. She enjoys her unique job, being creative, and teaching new things. Thank you, Ashley, for the many talents you bring to your role!
