At Atria, creating a warm, welcoming home starts with the people who work here. Every day, our employees bring kindness, dedication and a personal touch that makes all the difference for residents and their families. Their compassion turns everyday moments into something truly special – helping new residents feel not just comfortable, but like they belong.
A new beginning: Finding comfort and community
The right senior living community is about more than just a place to live – it’s about finding support, connection and a sense of home. That’s exactly what Daniel and Enid Lambert needed after losing their house in the Southern California wildfires. Their son, Joe, wanted more than just a safe place for them; he wanted a community where they would feel valued and cared for.
Thoughtful details make the difference
After visiting several senior living communities, Joe met Kellie Harris, Community Sales Director at Atria Park of Vintage Hills. Kellie didn’t just offer an apartment – she took the time to truly understand what would make Daniel and Enid feel at home. She put together a welcome basket filled with their favorite treats and framed a cherished photo of them to place in their potential new home. These small but meaningful touches turned what could have been just another tour into an emotional and heartfelt moment.
A community that cares
When Enid saw the thoughtful details, she was deeply moved. “How did you know?” she asked, touched by the kindness. That’s the kind of personal care Atria employees provide every day – taking the time to make each resident feel seen, heard and valued. The Lamberts moved in shortly after and now enjoy a community where friendships, engaging activities, and a sense of comfort and belonging are part of everyday life.
Recognizing exceptional care
Because of her incredible attention to detail and genuine compassion, Kellie was honored with Atria’s Uncommon Hospitality distinction – given to team members who go above and beyond to make residents feel truly at home. When our employees bring this level of care to their work, it creates an environment where residents aren’t just living comfortably, but thriving.
Why Atria? Because people matter
Choosing Atria means choosing a community that prioritizes people – both the residents who live here and the employees who care for them. Because our team members are supported and valued, they create an environment where residents thrive. Whether it’s a warm welcome, a helping hand or just a friendly conversation, our staff is dedicated to making each day meaningful.
