I had the privilege of attending Calgary Orientation this week in which we welcomed new employees to the Bethany family. Meeting our employees and hearing their stories and reasons for joining Bethany is always energizing and rewarding. Bethany has a very strong reputation in our industry for providing excellent care and services to our residents, tenants and families. Our mission of Creating Caring Communities, being recognized as a Top Employer 10 years in a row this year, and creating a culture of service excellence provides us with a competitive advantage in attracting and retaining top talent to the organization. We have an amazing workforce, rich in diversity of culture and experiences, all coming to Bethany for the common purpose of serving others. It is not an accident that so many of our employees have been at Bethany for 15+ years!
Our new employees at Orientation were given a “sneak peek” of our Bethany videos in which Bethany employees tell their stories about working at Bethany. The passion for serving others is very evident from each of our “Bethany stars”, and their positive attitude and pride is contagious! The videos can be found on YouTube by searching “Working at Bethany”, or you can visit Bethany’s YouTube Channel here. Daranne Harris, our VP & Chief Mission Officer, talks about understanding how we can improve the experience for residents, families and each other. We all own the Bethany experience, and it’s up to each of us to shape and create it. I encourage each of you to watch the videos and to consider how you will shape and create your Bethany story.
