“I got my dream job with Prestige Care. I work between two different locations as the wellness coach. I perform monthly fitness assessments on the residents and place them into one of my exercise classes. It’s such a fulfilling and fun career. I am so thankful for having such a solid education and great mentors along the way.” - Lorianne Ressler ‘18
