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!

Resident Family Member

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.

Jordan Sanchez, RN

After more than 20 years in long-term care, I have experienced a wide range of facilities, each with its own strengths and challenges, but none compare to the one I am part of today. St. Paul’s truly surpasses all others through its unwavering commitment to compassion, dignity, and excellence in care. The sense of community here—among residents, families, and staff alike—creates an environment where people are genuinely valued and respected. It is not just a place of care, but a place of pride, purpose, and belonging, and I am honored to be associated with a facility that sets such a high standard.

Diane Brest

Family member of a resident at Home-Based Services

Thank you to Ken for serving as a faithful companion to my father for the past three years. My father looks forward to the mornings when Ken is with him, particularly because Ken takes the time to read devotions and other spiritual materials. Ken also accompanies my father to fitness and other activities, and I know my father appreciates the company. Ken has been a faithful team member in ensuring that my father has social connections and maintains a level of activity.

Steve and Carol Hosmer

Residents at The Colony

Since moving here, we have enjoyed the lifestyle, the friendly atmosphere, the volunteer opportunities, the activities, the beauty of the campus and its facilities, and, most of all, the peace of mind that comes with knowing we have a home for the rest of our lives.
