Staff Testimonies
“Calvin Community is just that- a community. Everyone is so welcoming and willing to help each other in any circumstance. I really enjoy the positive culture we have created and it rubs off on everyone! Most of all I enjoy all the residents and being a part of the team.”- Svea Landa, LPN
“I love working at Calvin Community because it is like my second family. I’ve met some amazing, smart, and kind people here over the years. I’ve learned a lot! It is a great place to work and serve seniors.” -Jamie Spina, Activity Director
“I applied with Calvin in January of 2021 and from the day I walked into the building, I loved the atmosphere of the building and the attitudes of the employees. While still in training, one morning my trainer and I were the only nurses on duty due to having two call ins. All employees jumped into action and got the job done along with 3 other nurses coming in to help. The day turned from stressful to calm and happy in no time flat. This last year has been hard on all health care workers around the entire world, but it makes it easier knowing how much each and every employee here at Calvin Community care about each and every resident and shows up every day to make sure the residents have the best quality of life we can provide them. I am proud to be part of the Calvin Community Team.”-Angela Thompson, LPN
