We are blessed to have an exceptional group of people who work tirelessly every day to ensure the health, safety, and comfort of those who entrust us with helping them take their first steps on the road to recovery.
Throughout the year, we’ve highlighted individuals who exemplify what it means to be an AdCare Employee of the Month. Recently, we gathered to celebrate those honorees at a special luncheon — and to announce our Employee of the Year.
“Each person demonstrated exception dedication, professionalism, and a commitment to excellence that helped to move AdCare forward. Every honoree brought unique strengths, leadership, and impact to their role.”
Choosing just one Employee of the Year from such an outstanding group was no easy task. But after careful consideration, we are proud to announce Rafael Salas as AdCare’s Employee of the Year for 2025. ⭐
Rafael has been with AdCare for 20 years, and while his official title is Intake Coordinator, you’ll find him just about everywhere. He brings his fun, upbeat personality wherever a helping hand is needed — whether that’s in administration, maintenance, or housekeeping. 👨🏭
Most importantly, Rafael always puts our patients first. He’s firm but fair, meets people where they are, and leads with care, understanding, and empathy.
Congratulations on this well-deserved honor, Rafael! Join us in celebrating this incredible human. 💙
