Teamwork Triumph!

Today at Saint Therese IHM Senior Living, we’re celebrating the incredible maintenance team, the heroes who fix everything from leaky faucets to “mysteriously beeping” things no one can find.
They’re the masters of teamwork… the champions of “I’ve got the tool, you’ve got the ladder”… and the undisputed winners of “who can solve it the fastest.”
Our community runs smoothly because of their hard work, quick thinking, and ability to save the day (sometimes before breakfast). Thank you to this fantastic team for keeping Saint Therese shining!
We appreciate you more than you know!
