Yet, despite unexpected stresses and changes to our industry, one thing continues to ring true: our team members are the lifeblood of our organization’s success,” said Pat Lamoreux, vice president of human potential for Wesley Enhanced Living. “While I am proud and humbled by this team-earned honor, it takes hard work and a purposeful commitment to foster a working environment where employees feel connected to the mission, connected to each other and engaged in the community.”
