Congratulations to Jayna D, Kelsch Associates NJ’s April Employee of the Month!  Jayna is an exceptional staff, who is self motivated, hard working and dedicated to her consumers. 

Just one of Jayna’s many talents, she enjoys cooking Friday breakfast at the Day Program or preparing Thanksgiving and Christmas meals with the residents.  Jayna is enthusiastic and her high energy motivates the staff and consumers alike. Jayna often plans parties and recreation nights and always contributes her own ideas for themes and craft activities. She has volunteered to work hours outside of the Day Program at the Special Olympics bowling celebration, Recreation Nights, Holiday parties and Kelsch picnics.

Jayna is very observant and in tune with each consumers’ needs. She often can tell a consumer is “sick” just by their actions. Jayna is able to recall all of the Day Program consumers’ diets. She is responsible for checking her own group’s lunches at the Day Program and always provides input to other staff members regarding their group’s lunches. Jayna takes time with each resident to review their prescribed diet so they understand why they may have a particular consistency need.
​
Kelsch Associates NJ is beyond grateful to Jayna and for her service to the Agency.  Awesome job, Jayna!

Kelsch Associates Inc NJ is proud to announce that Kendis is the very deserving recipient of the Employee of the Month Award for February 2018!

Among Kendis’ strengths, she demonstrates excellent leadership abilities and an amazing amount of dedication to the Agency, her team and the consumers. Cindy, her supervisor, notes that Kendis is unfailingly dependable. For several months, Kendis was without a vehicle; during that time Kendis took an Uber (from Pennsylvania) to and from her shift each day; Kendis was so dedicated that despite her extraordinary commute, it never impacted her attendance.

Kendis is always pro-active and often approaches Cindy and asks, “how can I help you?” and if help is needed, she is always willing to coordinate a solution. That can-do attitude is why Kendis played a critical role during the 2017 licensing; she took ownership of her program and was able to lead her team, by example, to a very successful outcome.

Kendis’ dedication to her consumers’ is admirable, she even took it upon herself to learn the fundamentals of American Sign Language in order to better communicate with a consumer who is hearing impaired. Always positive, Kendis uses staff meetings as an opportunity to play games like Family Feud so that everyone on her team is actively engaged in learning the Agency Philosophy, which results in better care for the consumers.

Kelsch Associates Inc NJ is very proud to have Kendis on our team and encourages all team members to extend their congratulations to Kendis!
