I remember being very nervous that day and realized quickly that Andrews was like a big happy home with a lot of team spirit. After being with Andrews for more than two years I can honestly say that it has not changed. Staff members were eager to make me comfortable and

help at any time. The staff also taught me that it is okay to be human and make mistakes. It is a place to learn, grow and see first-hand, changes in residents lives and being able to assist and help residents. To me that is just awesome!”
