February 2025 Employee Spotlight: Lisa, Activities Coordinator

For Lisa, coming to work every day is an opportunity to be a blessing to someone. She has been an integral part of the Ohio Living Llanfair activities team for more than eight years and currently works as an activities coordinator.

“We bring excitement to Ohio Living Llanfair and give the residents a sense of belonging, while aiming to increase their socialization, physical, mental, and spiritual well-being, and creativity,” explained Lisa. “The most rewarding thing about my job is…it is not a job! I enjoy coming to work to spread love and positivity to our wonderful residents, families and staff.”

Lisa emphasized that to work in the healthcare field, one must genuinely care about people and stay committed. “This field is not for the weak at heart,” she shared. “It is a good idea to get to know the staff, the residents and their families. The more you know about a resident, the better you can help them live their lives with purpose. Stay committed - if it gets tough, find ways to relieve the stress, but don’t give up. The residents need you.”

A woman of many talents, Lisa has a medical and marital arts background. She spent 25+ years working as a personal trainer and has taught fitness classes, kickboxing and Silver Sneakers. One of her current hobbies is writing and reciting poetry at poetry slams and women’s empowerment events. In the future, she aims to open a wellness center that caters to youth and focuses on total health.

“I truly believe that nothing is impossible with God in my driver’s seat,” Lisa added. “I pray, do my affirmations, play a spiritual song, as well as a song of encouragement, and end my day with a stretch. I know I am exactly where I need and want to be.”
