Across our communities, our nurses are hard at work ensuring the very best care and wellbeing of our residents. We greatly appreciate all that our nurses do day in and day out to establish comfort, care and support for our residents.
Nurses can most often be found in Assisted Living and Memory Care communities as well as Skilled Nursing Facilities that cater to older adults. These nurses offer care services that allow residents as much independence and dignity as possible, while ensuring aid and support are on hand when needed.
Our Caregivers are the heart of our communities in so many ways. They offer that extra peace of mind for you or your loved one, and step in to care for them like family. They work within our communities to provide the perfect balance of care and support so your loved one can enjoy their independence while you rest assured knowing care is always on hand when they need it most. From medication management to assistance with the Activities of Daily Living (like bathing, dressing, or toileting), our caregivers assist with a range of care options depending on our residents needs.

Having worked for Pacifica for several years, she has learnt and grown so much, all the while giving back to her team and residents. We sat down with her to talk about her inspiring story of ambition, and how she has risen through the ranks of Pacifica Senior Living, accomplishing her dreams every step of the way.
Last weekend marked an extra special Veterans Day for Sun City Senior Living. This tight-knit community in Sun City, Florida, experienced the joy of a wedding on Saturday November 11th. The beautiful bride was none other than the community’s long-serving Activities Director, Jennifer Petit.
The events, activities and classes in our communities are what truly make our communities stand out from the rest. We offer a fun-filled calendar of activities ranging from crafts, to games, outings and events. We sat down with one of our amazing Activities Directors, George Stickles, to talk more about his journey into Senior Living, and why he loves his role at Pacifica Senior Living Mission Villa.
Cate Cash has been the Activity Director at Pacifica Senior Living Paradise Valley for nearly 2 years now. Cate's dedication, enthusiasm, and hard work is evident in everything she does, and her events, activities and support for her residents can be seen day in and day out throughout the community.
Chef Jamie has been an integral part of the Pacifica Senior Living community for decades, and has inspired countless other staff members, residents and family members during his time with us. His passion, dedication, and heart make him a true standout within our community, and a joy to be around. The Culinary team and staff at The Park Lane wanted to honor Chef Jaime for his continued work and leadership.
He continues to be a shining light in our community, and a wonderful mentor and friend to so many.
We asked the team at The Park Lane to share a little bit about Chef Jaime, and the impact he has had on them and their community. This is what they had to say:
Our Employee Spotlight this month is the wonderful Lori, of West Park Senior Living.
Lori is a caring and thoughtful part of the Pacifica team, who goes above and beyond in her communities. She strives to make a difference each day for her residents and team members, building a culture of care, acceptance and compassion for all. She has been with us for six years, and worked her way up in the company, becoming a huge asset to the Pacifica team.
We are always so proud of the incredible and meaningful work our Pacifica team provides each and every day. They go beyond the day to day to truly invoke a sense of family and care. That love and caring has never been more real than between resident Carol W. and Velma P. from Pacifica Senior Living Palm Springs.
Velma has been a caregiver for over 17 years, and has recently joined the Pacifica family. At our Palm Spring community, Velma was assisting in the dining hall one evening when she heard some commotion. She scanned around the room and spotted one of the residents, Carol, who had a look of fear and panic on her face.
Velma knew right away that something was very wrong, and Carol was in trouble.
This month, we want to celebrate the amazing Carline from Pacifica Senior Living Rancho Penasquitos. Carline is a wonderful asset to both her team and the Pacifica family as a whole. Over the years she has worked her way up in the company, and become an integral part of her communities.
Carline is a hard working, dedicated, and compassionate Executive Director who knows the value of determination and teamwork. We asked her a few questions about her experience, why she loves working for Pacifica, and what advice she might give to others.
