“It is just so heartwarming for a caregiver like me at The Cottages, when I hear the residents say good things like: “God bless you for all you’re doing; I’m happy to have you here; i see you love doing your job “or when i hear my supervisors say: thank you for doing this and that or when the family members will say: “I’m glad to have moved my mom to this cottage”, or “my mom is so lucky to be with you”, or “we prayed for you today”, and other comforting words and deeds. I always remember that any caregiving job is more than just a source of income, it is important to be human to another human being. It is reassuring to know that The Cottage team is always there when we need help, they are great!.”
