Brenda Michael

The Ridgewood Team Member

I have worked at St. Paul's since June 2006. I was a Universal Worker at The Heritage for three years and then moved up to The Ridgewood as a Personal Care Attendant. I have passion for my job. I enjoy caring for our residents–they are like family to me. I enjoy my co-workers, who are also like family to me. We all work together to get the job done!

Honoring Kim Phillips, a Personal Care Attendant

Kim is a pleasure to see on weekends in Jones Serenity Circle. She always knows what's going on with Mom and is quick to report it when I visit. As the number of residents continues to grow, I'm sure the demands do also, but you wouldn't know it by Kim's sunny attitude.

Honoring Jenny Patterson, a CNA

Our Mother, Violet was a resident at The Villas from March 2016 until her passing on January 16, 2026. Our sister, Beverly has also been a resident since June 2024. Both have received excellent care from staff members, but Jenny is one who stands out. I've never seen her in a bad mood, always with a smile on her face. She exudes a caring, compassionate, loving way with residents and family members alike. She goes above and beyond what one might expect from a staff member. Jenny seems to meet each person where they are, joking with them, hugging them and is genuinely invested in each of her residents. Any care facility should be thankful for people like Jenny and my family is graetful she is part of St Paul's.

Family member of a resident at The Villas

From the very first week my mom was there, Terri has shown compassion and caring to mom, all with a dose of humor thrown in there as well! My mom, Lila, lights up when Terri is with her. It is such a comfort to me–as a daughter–that my mom is loved that way, especially when I can not be there! She shows genuine compassion, comfort, respect and creative work-arounds in difficult situations. My mom’s quality of life is definitely better because of Terri. What a sweetheart!

We received wonderful feedback from a resident's family member, expressing deep appreciation for the exceptional care their loved one receives at The Heritage. Katie's unwavering dedication and kindness are key to making meaningful differences, like this and many others. We are truly grateful to have her as part of our team!
