Employee Testimonials

By far my favorite job. Love The Village and all it stands for. They are great to the residents and employees. Great pay and benefits. I love what I do and this job has been very rewarding. So very thankful!

I’m so glad I found such a wonderful place to work. This was a big change for me from my previous employers. You can’t find a better place for your loved ones to live and get to meet new friends. The staff is wonderful, loving and so caring. The food is good and care is amazing. So if anyone has a loved one that needs a good place to live I recommend The Village of St Edward at Wadsworth.

Excellent facility. Best I’ve worked for. Recommend anyone looking for a long term career to check out The Village. This is the kind of job that you keep until you retire.

As a non-profit, faith-based organization, we place people above the financial interests. Our decisions are based on what is best for our residents and community. As such, we will never ask a resident to leave if they outlive their funds.

“So then, as we have opportunity, let us do good to everyone..”.
