Devonshire and Chatsworth Employees Enjoy Meaningful, Life-Changing Career Opportunities

Since moving to South Florida from Connecticut, Gina Papa discovered that her new role as Assistant Director of Nursing at Chatsworth, the continuing care neighborhood at Devonshire, the Erickson Senior Living community at PGA National in Palm Beach Gardens, Fla., is more than just a job. She now enjoys opportunities and support for achieving her career goals.

“The services we offer to more than 30,000 residents nationwide are only as good as the people providing them,” says Alan Butler, Chief Executive Officer of Erickson Senior Living. “That is why we take the hiring process very seriously in order to identify the best people. As a growth company with a bright future, we strive to be an employer of choice by providing an unparalleled workplace experience.”

Erickson Senior Living is dedicated to providing its employees a vibrant work experience, financial stability, and a commitment to health and well-being. 

“Once I transferred my nursing license to Florida and began looking for a job, I knew Devonshire had a great reputation,” says Gina. “I also knew that Erickson Senior Living is dedicated to supporting employees, often promoting from within. I wanted to be a part of a company that puts people first.”

Since beginning her career at Erickson Senior Living in May 2022, Gina has not been disappointed. Her new role exceeds her expectations, most notably in the areas of diversity and acceptance.

“Located in South Florida, Devonshire/Chatsworth is such a melting pot of culture and diversity,” she says. “Blending that, with Erickson Senior Living’s vision and values, is wonderful to see. Our leadership team allows a safe place for conversations; promotes from within; maintains open door policies; and ensures that we are always there for each other.”

As an Erickson Senior Living employee, Gina, and her staff, enjoy benefits designed to meet team members where they are in life, supporting their growth, development, and success. 

 “As a member of the management team, we continually touch base with our staff. We take good care of each other,” says Gina. “I appreciate the benefits of our Employee Assistance Program (EAP). I’ve witnessed staff members who’ve taken advantage of the program thrive more at work and at home. It’s really made an impact in both their personal and professional lives. They are given time and resources to seek the attention they need.”

Erickson Senior Living also offers the unique perks of annual well-being visits and access to fitness challenges and health trackers. The Wellness Fund provides reimbursement of up to $260 for personal wellness expenses for team members enrolled in an Erickson Senior Living medical plan. 

“We are a fierce community. Since I’ve been at Chatsworth, I’ve worked alongside our director of nursing to achieve our 5-star rating,” says Gina. “We are also currently in the running for the Gold Seal award. All of this illustrates that we take quality care very seriously. Our 5-star rating is literally based on the care we provide, helping our residents live their best lives.”

And just as they take excellent care of the residents they serve; Erickson Senior Living takes care of the staff members who help the company fulfil its mission.

“This is a company that supports you and your skill set, but also helps identify new opportunities,” says Gina. “Hard work and dedication are recognized and Erickson Senior Living will help take you where you want to grow.”
