Celebrating Milestones and Moments: What Working at Kensington Place Feels Like

At Kensington Place Redwood City, we believe in celebrating every milestone—big or small. From birthdays and work anniversaries to everyday acts of kindness, our team culture is about more than schedules and shifts—it’s about belonging, joy, and shared purpose.

Our Promise is to love and care for your family as we do our own.

A Culture of Celebration

Every month, we spotlight team anniversaries, birthdays, and personal achievements with:

  • Personalized shoutouts
  • Team lunches or surprise treats
  • Notes of appreciation from leadership

These gestures, though simple, help every team member feel seen and valued.

Meaningful Moments at Work

Our community is filled with touching moments:

  • A care partner singing to soothe a resident
  • A cook remembering a favorite dish
  • An activity assistant helping a resident paint for the first time in years

These moments define what it means to work at Kensington Place—making real, human connections.

Events and Traditions

We bring our team together with:

  • Annual Holiday Parties and summer BBQs
  • Team Appreciation Weeks
  • Community Volunteer Days

It’s not just about the event—it’s about honoring the compassion and effort our team brings daily.

How We Recognize Excellence

  • Peer-nominated “Kensington Place Champions”
  • Storyboard walls showcasing impactful care moments
  • Monthly spotlight features in our internal newsletter

We believe excellence deserves to be acknowledged and celebrated.

The Kensington Place Difference

We don’t just Promise to love and care for residents like family. We live that Promise in how we treat each other:

  • Empathy in leadership
  • Time off for personal needs and family care
  • Open-door feedback culture

Our Promise isn’t just a line—it’s a way of working and living.

“Kensington takes such good care of mom! Every time I go there there are people encouraging her and looking out for her, and they really do work as a team to take care of everyone. There are all kinds of events to bring joy to the residents and to bring families together. I couldn’t chose a better place for mom.”
– Natalie K.
