Meet The Community
Here’s what many team members have to say about working here.
“Talking to residents about their lives is one of the things I love about working here. I enjoy when they say ‘I love you’ and ‘Thank you, the food was delicious!’ I also appreciate establishing meaningful relationships with residents and team members.”
Mary Ann Smolar“I love being part of an organization that is so upstanding. It is truly a privilege to work here. The atmosphere is amazing and my coworkers and supervisors are the most caring, flexible, and knowledgeable people that I have ever worked with.”
Heather Mellinger“There are many things that I love about working at Garden Spot Communities, including these: great management, wonderful residents, and a family like atmosphere. I also like that they are a faith-based community – it is one of the most important things to me. When I look back at my other jobs that I had, none of them had the faith-based atmosphere like we have here and I didn’t realize how important it actually was to me until I experienced it.”
Jerome Carter“I love working for Maple Farm because everyone really cares about what’s best for our residents. The teamwork and collaborating between staff is great, your opinions regarding care is taken into account, and I never go a day feeling unappreciated.”
Emily Wilson“Everything about Garden Spot is genuine: coworkers, management, and residents especially. I love the environment – everyone has something to offer, even something as simple as a smile. Investing my time here has given me so many opportunities to grow in not only my career, but most importantly as a person.”
Lindsey Mann“At Garden Spot I get to fulfill my passion for cooking by working in an incredible restaurant, without the long hours usually associated with working in a restaurant. As a supervisor, I have the ability to be creative and expressive with my cooking and help others in their culinary journey. The best part? I feel like I’m making a difference at Garden Spot and I appreciate the relationships I’ve made with the people who live and work here.”
Tony Santos“Garden Spot Communities is the best place I have ever worked for. GSC works hard to stay ahead of the curve through innovative, out of the box thinking, and I am often given tasks that challenge and push me in my career. I love being a part of the Garden Spot family!”

Lorrie Westenhoefer“I enjoy working for Garden Spot Communities because of the difference it makes. Not just the difference I make for the residents and their families, but the difference as a whole that GSC makes in me. It’s such an awesome feeling to feel like you’re needed. It’s a combination of the opportunities I have here to learn, the events and activities that I’m allowed to be a part of, and the great staff members that cause me to be my best.”
