💛✨ Random Acts of Kindness Day at Pleasantview ✨💛

Today we’re celebrating kindness — the everyday kind that quietly makes a big difference. We’re grateful for so many wonderful people in our Pleasantview family, but today we want to highlight three individuals whose kindness truly shines.

🌟 Tim Sullivan – A faithful volunteer and devoted son who visits his mother often, Tim brings genuine connection wherever he goes. His uplifting spirit, heartfelt conversations, and yes… his legendary dad jokes 😄 brighten the days of residents and staff alike. His kindness is felt every time he walks through our doors.

🍩 Terry Craig (CMA) – Terry has a gift for spreading joy in unexpected ways — surprise donuts, silver dollars shared with residents, candy dishes mysteriously refilled, and humor that makes even tough days lighter. His playful kindness makes Pleasantview a happier place every single day.

😊 Clara (Resident) – Clara embodies kindness from the heart. Always willing to help, eager to participate, and greeting everyone with that beautiful smile, she lifts spirits wherever she goes. Her generosity and warmth bring joy to residents and staff alike.

Kindness like this is what makes Pleasantview feel like home. Thank you, Tim, Terry, and Clara — and to everyone who spreads kindness here every day. 💛

🌟 CNA Spotlight: Luke Petts 🌟

At Pleasantview, our CNAs are so much more than caregivers — they’re teammates, advocates, and a steady presence for our residents every single day.

Today we’re excited to spotlight Luke Petts, who has been part of the Pleasantview team for 1.5 years and works second shift.

Luke became a CNA with a goal in mind — to grow in healthcare and truly understand the nursing field firsthand.

💬 “To further my work opportunities in healthcare and get a lay of the land of the nursing job field.”

What’s especially cool about Luke’s story is how it started right here at Pleasantview — he joined the team when Pleasantview offered to pay for his CNA training, and he worked in the kitchen in the meantime. That says a lot about the opportunities that can grow within our community. 👏

And when it comes to teamwork, Luke shared something we love to hear:

💬 “Through closed loop communication and willingness to help each other with their tasks.”

That willingness to step in and support one another is what makes our team strong — especially during busy shifts.

Luke also gave great advice for anyone considering becoming a CNA:

💬 “It’s a great starting point if you want to see if the nursing field is a good option for you.”

Thank you, Luke, for your dedication and the positive energy you bring to our team! 💙

📣 Interested in becoming a CNA or joining our Pleasantview family?
We’d love to talk with you about opportunities on our team!
