Monthly Service Award

This month, as we highlight the importance of our Day Services program, we can't help but shine a light on someone truly special: Jennifer Ruiz. Jennifer's dedication to her role as a Direct Support Professional is something to admire. She's always there with a helping hand and a kind word, making sure our clients feel valued and cared for.

Every morning, Jennifer walks in with that infectious smile of hers, ready to tackle whatever the day brings. As a DSP, she goes above and beyond to make sure our clients feel cared for and supported. Whether it's assisting with activities, lending an ear, or just sharing a laugh, Jennifer's warmth and kindness shine through in everything she does.

In one instance, Jennifer's commitment to client engagement and support was exemplified during a restocking task. Jennifer approached the task not as a chore but as an opportunity for meaningful engagement. With patience and encouragement, she guided the client through each step of the process, ensuring he felt involved and valued every step of the way. What began as a simple restocking job became a shared experience filled with laughter, camaraderie, and a sense of accomplishment.

But it's not just the clients who appreciate Jennifer – her colleagues do too. She's always there to lend a hand or offer words of encouragement, making our team stronger and more united. Jennifer's positive attitude and willingness to pitch in make her a valued member of our Center.

What really sets Jennifer apart, though, is her big heart. She genuinely cares about the people around her, and it shows in the way she treats everyone with kindness and respect. Her empathy and compassion make our Center feel like a family, and for that, we're incredibly grateful.

Jennifer, today we want to say thank you. Thank you for your hard work, your dedication, and your unwavering kindness. You truly make our Adult Day Services program a brighter place, and we're lucky to have you on our team. Congratulations on this well-deserved recognition!
