The most valuable resource a service organization of any type can have is its people. For health care businesses and senior living communities, their employees are more important than ever. Finding and retaining team members who genuinely care about those they serve is the key to success.
In senior living communities, organizations with employees who are happy and engaged with residents usually have lower staff turnover. As a result, team members get to know residents and their families more deeply. It leads to greater continuity of care and higher resident satisfaction.
Core Values at American Senior Communities
Positive, healthy relationships play a pivotal role in supporting the mental, physical and emotional well-being of our residents. At ASC, we are proud to create an environment where our team members are encouraged to engage with residents in such meaningful and supportive ways. It all stems from four core values:
- Compassion: We treat individuals with kindness, empathy and respect.
- Accountability: We take ownership of our actions and results.
- Relationships: We build and maintain positive relationships through common purpose and open communication.
- Excellence: We provide the best possible service and outcomes by going above and beyond to exceed our customers’ expectations.
These guiding principles create a framework for every interaction in our communities, whether it’s with residents and families or team members and corporate staff.
