Heritage Estates Celebrates the 1st Anniversary of Resident-Led English Classes for Staff
April 14, 2009
It was another exciting day at Heritage as 20 staff and 15 residents were honored for being the charter members of Heritage's English as a Second Language classes. A year ago, resident Peg Scott started the program in and effort to help Spanish-speaking staff learn the English language. In that time, staff participants have learned how to communicate much more effectively with residents and other staff and one student/staff member studied for and earned her citizenship! Heritage Estates is very proud of all the staff and residents who have worked so diligently in the program.
“Being a long-time homeowner, I never thought that living in a retirement community would be something I'd be interested in. I have to say that moving to Heritage Estates is the smartest thing I've ever done. The staff is caring and helpful and they provide many fun activities. The meals have been excellent. I have made many new friends and look forward every day to life in my new home.”
