Join our Team, Share our Passion

We asked associates…

What is the most rewarding part of your job?


“Meeting new people and teaching them about what Armbrook Village has to offer in order to help families find a new home for their loved ones.”

– Julie Waniewski, Executive Director


“Helping others! Whether it is a form to help a co-worker, explaining benefits to an associate, relieving the stress of a family member by reviewing their bills with them or asking how mom/dad is doing or helping a resident understand their bill or just asking them how their day is so far, brings me such pleasure. The smiles of appreciation that I get are the most rewarding part of my job!”

– Catherine Federici, Assistant Executive Director


Armbrook Village

“The most rewarding part of my job is creating programming that is different and that will spark joy in the residents lives. I love it when a resident comes to a program that they have never been before but ends up loving it and coming every week. I also love teaching the residents something new or having them learn something new so that they are always continuously learning even though they are older individuals. I like to stress the point that you are never too old to learn something new.”

– Rebecca Fondakowski, EnrichedLIFE Director


“Seeing a resident blossom who was previously retreating into a shell because of Mild Cognitive Impairment.”

– Susan O’Donnell, Director of Compass Programming

Armbrook Village

“I enjoy interacting with our residents on a daily basis. It really gives you a feeling of how we are such an important part of their lives and community. It also allows us to learn about our residents & families and what they have seen and done in their lives.”

– Chris Marsh, Director of Dining Experience
