"When I first started at Marklund,I had no clue what toexpect. I thought it would just be a job and nothing more. As Istarted working I got much more out of Marklund than just a job, Igot a second family. I enjoy every day coming to work and caring forall the residents. Days when I work I walk in to my name being shouted with joy by some of the residents and that's an amazing feeling to know they are happy to see me.
It may be hard work sometimes, but it's more than rewarding. Every day I see the smileson the resident's faces and I know I'm doing a good thing. Marklundis way more than just a job, it's a fun place to work."
