Zac joined our activities department in August of 2024. He has brought joy, comfort, and compassion to our residents every day. He strives to make every resident feels welcomed in the building. When asked what inspired him to work in long-term care this is what he had to say:

Jaime Kentala has been named Norlite’s March Teammate of the Month!

Jaime has been a teammate with UP Rehab for the past 20 years and was actually the very first employee hired by the company. We’re incredibly fortunate to have her working with us full-time at Norlite.

This marks Jaime’s third time receiving this recognition, and each time the nominations speak to the same thing: the genuine care and dedication she shows every day. Jaime is always willing to jump in to help with cares and transfers, and she truly cares about the well-being of the residents she serves.

Her coworkers consistently describe her as kind, knowledgeable, dependable, and always willing to help when asked. With decades of service at Norlite and UP Rehab, Jaime brings both experience and compassion to everything she does.

Most importantly, Jaime is simply a wonderful person to work with, and our residents and team are better because of her.

Congratulations, Jaime, and thank you for everything you do! 👏

Yesterday we had a bittersweet send off for Erica as she embarks on a new professional journey! Erica joined the Norlite family in August 2024 as a dietary aide before transitioning to activites coordinator last summer. We are grateful for all of the time, care, energy, and love she put into the residents here. Good luck on you're next adventure!

Our laundry services are temporarily changing to a facility in Escanaba due to Eastwood's laundry working on installing new dryers! This is estimated to be a 4-6 week project. In the meantime a service in Escanaba will be picking up and returning our laundry on Monday's, Wednesday's and Friday's. This means that our turn around will be 48-72 hours instead of the normal 24 hours. Please contact Tabi or Taylor in our Social Services department if you would like to temporarily change to family laundry instead of Norlite laundry for your loved one. We thank you for patience and understanding!

This morning, Betsy from the Marquette Regional History Center gave our residents a special presentation on the railroads in Marquette County! It was so interesting being able to look at how influential the railroad system was and how it influences our community to this day. A few of our residents even recognized the railroads from riding them themselves in the past!

A huge thank you to Darlene and her sweet pup, Bwca, for coming in this morning to share a presentation with us on sled dogs and the history of mushing in the UP! Although Bwca is not officially a sled dog, she did look very professional in the harness demonstration!

Last week our Winter Carnival King and Queen had a royal parade around the facility, where they were celebrated and cheered on by staff and residents! Even though this was a special, annual crowning, our goal is to help all of our residents feel royal all year long!
