"At Silverado, you really get a sense that the company believes in the mission statement. At other jobs, the mission statement is just another hanging on the wall - it's there, but no one knows what it says. Consequently, the mission never gets carried out. That's just the opposite with Silverado. Every associate knows what we're about and what we're trying to accomplish - not only for the residents we serve, but also the associates who serve them."
- Le Riggs, Administrator, Silverado Senior Living - Sugarland
"I like that I am allowed to learn and grow through the mistakes I make. No one is perfect, and I think Silverado understands that. What truly impresses me is that any feedback we get as associates is meant for our growth, not to diminish us. I am inspired to be a better person because of Silverado's LOVE>fear philosophy. Because of it, I am a better leader, a better friend, a better spouse, a better daughter, a better sister - a better person. I have learned to appreciate people in ways I never did before. I have learned better ways to deal with what life has to offer me on any given day. Best of all, I have learned how to share this gift with others."
- Le Riggs, Administrator, Silverado Senior Living - Sugarland
"I am inspired by Silverado's vision that gets to be realized everyday! I see how residents' lives are changed dramatically from their beginning to the time they move to Silverado. The difference is like night and day! I've seen a resident who is isolated at home, or has challenging behaviors, or is declining fast suddenly make a turn for the better once they move into our community. Our caring staff, along with the unique program of Silverado, makes what we call our distinct "Silverado magic" that changes people's lives for the better. Because of this, our families can finally have peace of mind."
- Vida Gwinn, Administrator, Silverado Senior Living - Sierra Vista
"Silverado is different due to the corporate philosophy of Love>fear, and the personal care and actions executives take to preserve it. I love the interaction with associates who share my philosophy of care and the bonus of making a real difference every day in so many lives. I am inspired by the example of those with whom I work, whether they are an entry level associate or a major executive. The philosophy ‘we are all in this together' is a winning theme."
- Kathleen T. Smith, Administrator, Silverado Senior Living - Escondido
