In light of quarantine protocol in place at Wesley Manor in Frankfort, the retirement community is adding up to 20 temporary hospitality team members.
The people who fill the temporary hourly positions will interact and visit with residents one-on-one and participate in activities such as playing games, working puzzles, taking walks, transporting patients on strolls and helping with FaceTime, Skype or other methods of video communication.
“We’re looking for people who enjoy visiting with older people and want to provide friendly, compassionate support,” said Fred Taylor, executive director of Wesley Manor. “These are unprecedented times, and we want all of our residents to feel connected and cared for even though they are experiencing social distancing.”
The new team members will undergo daily health screenings, just as all staff members are at this time.
Wesley Manor is affiliated with Indiana-based nonprofit BHI Senior Living, which began in 1905 as a faith-based organization. It also operates the Barrington in Carmel, Four Seasons in Columbus, Hoosier Village in Indianapolis and The Towne House in Fort Wayne.
