💙 Meet the Team Monday: Bennett 💙
This week, we’re shining the spotlight on LaShawnda Bennett, CNA & Med Aide! Around here, though, you’ll usually hear us call her simply Bennett!
Bennett has dedicated more than 25 years to healthcare, becoming a CNA in 1999 and spending the last 9 years right here at Diversicare of Foley. Her journey into healthcare was inspired by her mother, who was also a CNA. Watching her mom care for others inspired Bennett to follow in her footsteps, and over the years, she developed a passion for caring for others herself.
One of Bennett’s most memorable experiences at Diversicare was during COVID, when she saw our team come together, support one another, and show what true teamwork looks like during one of the most challenging times in healthcare.
Outside of work, Bennett loves spending time with her family. She is the proud mom of four children and grandmother to an incredible 15 grandchildren! 🥰 She’s especially proud of raising her smart, beautiful children—and if you want to make her day, you can’t go wrong with a Snickers! 🍫
Bennett has also overcome fears along the way, including the fear that she wouldn’t complete school. Today, she has built a career spanning more than two decades while raising a family she is incredibly proud of.
We’re so thankful to have Bennett as part of our Diversicare family. She brings years of experience, dedication, and a genuine heart for caring for others to our residents every day. 💙
Help us show Bennett some love! 👏
