🌟 Meet Maria Rodriguez, LIFE Illustrator of the Month for February, a valued member of the Brooke Grove family who truly embodies our core value, Family Matters. While Maria primarily works with our Culinary team, she is also an active and supportive member of our Environmental Services team—always ready to help wherever needed.
Maria takes great pride in preparing quality meals and thoughtfully customizing them to meet residents’ needs and preferences. She regularly visits tables—and occasionally residents’ rooms—to ensure everyone is enjoying their meals, treating each resident like family. Her warm smile, friendly greetings, and genuine eye contact help create a welcoming environment for residents, staff, and visitors alike.
Cheerful, approachable, and often sharing her joy through song, Maria brings positivity and connection to our community every day. Congratulations, Maria, on being a LIFE Illustrator—we’re so grateful for you! 🎶💙
