START A NEW CAREER WITH SAINT JOHN'S

Under the cover of darkness, a small group of dedicated individuals labor to keep Saint John’s residents safe and sound.

The care neighborhoods of Windsor, Stratford and Canterbury are staffed in the overnight hours with Nurses and Resident Assistants. Longtime employee Wendy Zbieranek, RN, takes charge of the crew in assisted living. Her eye for detail goes beyond resident care as the relative quiet of night shift allows time to report observations of work needed to maintain safety and aesthetics. Wendy’s counterpart is Dana Jackson, LPN. Dana focuses her considerable talent customizing her approach to the unique needs of each . . .
