What does defending resident dignity mean to you?

Amber's answer:
Social work as a profession has the core values of service, social justice, dignity and worth of the person, importance of human relationships, integrity, and competence. As a social worker I take these core values to heart and keep them in mind as I work. One of my main responsibilities as a social worker at Carroll Lutheran Village is to advocate for my residents and defending resident dignity is part of that. Everyone has inherent dignity and worth. Being in a position of living in a healthcare center/ needing help can be vulnerable. Residents in this situation can maintain their dignity by participating in their care, dressing in clothes they like, making choices about how they spend their day, being called by their preferred name and much more. These sometimes “small” things add up. Defending resident dignity to me means that I am part of making my residents feel seen and respected.

Thank you for all you do!

𝐁𝐫𝐨𝐨𝐤𝐞'𝐬 𝐚𝐧𝐬𝐰𝐞𝐫:
As a rehab social worker in the Health Care Center, I advocate for my residents by ensuring their voices are heard and their goals remain a priority. I collaborate closely with the interdisciplinary team to address psychosocial needs, remove barriers to discharge, and connect residents and families with appropriate community resources. Whether I am coordinating with the therapy dept., nursing team or facilitating family meetings, I work to protect residents’ rights and promote their dignity, autonomy and overall well-being. Advocating in my role also looks like providing emotional support, helping residents navigate complicated healthcare systems and empowering them to make informed decisions about their care and future.

We appreciate all you do!

What does uplifting someone look like in your role?

Jamie's answer:

Uplifting a resident can be as simple as taking a private moment with them to ask how they are doing. It can be helping a resident feel more empowered to handle tough situations they never envisioned conquering. Empowerment helps residents gain their self-confidence, dignity and self-determination. As a social worker, this means building meaningful relationships with residents and partnering together to discover and utilize those strengths and capabilities.

Thank you for all you do!

Our Residence Life team recently hosted the CLV Olympics, and residents brought their competitive spirit and sense of humor. The games included crowd favorites like granny pants, shuffleboard, “horse racing” (well… sort of!) and several other creative challenges that kept everyone laughing and cheering each other on.

One of the most fun moments? Residents crafted their own CLV Olympic torches using ice cream cones and Cheetos—proof that a little creativity (and snacks!) goes a long way.

Events like this are a great reminder that staying active, having fun and sharing a few laughs together are all part of life at CLV. Who says the Olympics only happen every four years?

Residents recently got a behind-the-scenes look at the Avondale Dining Room kitchen at CLV. Chef Kevin and Megan, dining room manager, led the tour and shared how the culinary team keeps everything running smoothly—from meal prep to the final plate.

To top off the experience, each resident received a chef hat with the sticker: “I signed up for the kitchen tour, and all I got was this lousy hat!”—plus a delicious March-themed Rice Krispies treat homemade by Layla.

It was a fun way to learn more about the teamwork and creativity that go into every meal served at CLV!
