American Senior Communities

Working at West Bend has been one of the most rewarding nursing experiences of my 20+ career. Are there challenges and bad days? YES! Is staffing sometimes very challenging? YES! But, these are the same concerns and problems at every LTC facility. What is different at West Bend is the support from both floor staff and other managers (both nursing and non nursing). No staff in dietary today? NO PROBLEM! The nurse managers will sign up to do a few hours to cover it! I have never felt more supported and appreciated in any other nursing role (except maybe hospice). When a teammate looks overwhelmed, stressed ,etc it is the norm that someone talks to them and comes up with a plan to help . ASC has displayed it's appreciation and support to it 's staff by continually reviewing salaries in areas and adjusting accordingly AND rolling out the new PTO enhancment (extra $ or extra time off)!! We help and support each and every team member without exception. New staff and agency staff typically comment on how "helpul and nice" we are compared to some of their past experiences. We have fun. We have dress up weeks. And all of that leads to BETTER PATIENT CARE AND BETTER RESIDENT OUTCOMES! And our team is vigilant about resident care. It is why we do what we do. Becky, BSN, RN, CEC,IP

I had never worked in health care and was very nervous about what I was about to do! I started at West Bend as a Nurse aide in training in February 2022 and ASC paid for my classes! Didn't even have to sign a "contract to stay". That's probably because once you work here, you really have no reason or desire to go anywhere else. The classroom and clinical training was top notch. My instructor and floor preceptor did an excellent job of training me and making sue that I felt comfortable and that I could provide safe care. I was very prepared and passed state testing with no issues. The nurse managers, floor nurses and other aides are great! My managers want to hear my ideas and they ask all of us for our input when we need to problem solve or make changes. They are willing to do any job/task to help and I feel like they truly listen to us. The best part of my job is the relationships that I have made with all of the resident's. I know that providing the best care possible makes them feel happy and loved. They all deserve to be treated with dignity and compassion....especially considering for most this is the last chapter of their life. They are no longer living in their home, they don't have the same choices and control they once had, they may have memory impairments that make it frustrating or impossible to understand any of it and that is just sad. I feel it is my job to make this last chapter as happy and healthy as possible...and they can tell...they ask where I am when it's my day off!! There is nothing more rewarding than being able to provide care and comfort to my residents.

I've been working for ASC for close to 6 months now, and having been in senior care for over a decade, I could see how different ASC is from other long-term care/senior care/skilled nursing facilities. They truly care about their residents and treat them like family. I have also become good friends with several of my coworkers and it makes coming to work that much more enjoyable. Pay is very competitive and there are a lot of other perks and benefits too! I would recommend a job here (or bringing your family here) to anyone!

I recently joined American Senior Communities at their home office. This company truly puts their values and mission into everything they do, and this stems from the integrity and conscientiousness of their leadership team. There are so many opportunities for growth and development for employees, and working in this field is incredibly gratifying. I would highly recommend working for ASC!

ASC is a good company to work for. I personally work at a facility in Lafayette and there is always room to grow, with the passion to help you in your career path. Our department heads are dedicated to their residents and employees, alike. I feel appreciated in my job 🙂

I have been a nurse for 41 years and have never worked in a Health Care Facility that I have total faith in, that what my residents need they will get. This company has been amazing to work for. I have been with them for 5 years and love my job. I work with great support people and always have someone to call if i need help. I can't say enough good things. Totally happy employee! Thank you ASC.

I have worked at an American Senior Community for 13 years. They are constantly striving amid the every changing rules and regulations to enable our employees to provide superior care for our residents. Our facility welcomes our new hires to our team and they quickly feel at home. Our employees are seen and appreciated for the work and care they provide. I highly recommend an American Senior Community for you next place of employment.
