Join us in congratulating Lakisha Neal, our amazing Hospitality Aide!
This award is well deserved and we couldn't be more proud!
Congratulations to Lakisha Neal, Hospitality Aide at Buckeye Forest of Fairfield, on being named one of our 2025 OHCA Assisted Living Excellence Award winners! 🎉
For 12+ years, LaKisha has gone above and beyond for residents—jumping in wherever needed, on any floor. She’s the teammate who quietly notices a toppled pile of laundry and washes it, brings curtains and essentials so an apartment feels like home.
Her work ethic is unmatched, and her compassion is constant—families, residents, vendors, and colleagues all rave about her kindness, empathy, and respect. She mentors new staff, knows each resident’s story, and reminds us what true caregiving looks like: “I love them, every one of them.”
Please join us in celebrating LaKisha—an everyday hero and a shining example of excellence in assisted living. 💙
