Century Park would like to recognize the following women:

She is the perfect model of compassion. She does not see the bad in anyone.”

Sunny truly loves residents and staff, and it is apparent in everything she does. The Bridge is blessed to have her.

   “I connected immediately with all staff and forgot how rewarding it was to work with a population who needs assistance.  After more than 10 years of employment with The Bridge, I consider myself very blessed.  I work with amazing employees, and we all have mutual respect.” 

   The staff loves the energy and laughter that Lisa brings into the building. She is hard-working and always happy to help with any task at hand.

It’s a great feeling to know that you are helping someone out that needs it and that you are truly appreciated,” says Lindsay.
