activitiescw@advenagroup.com

I have worked at Advena Living of Clearwater since November 2023. I have over 30 years of experience in nursing, as a Certified Activity Director, Social Service Designee, CNA, CMA and EMT. I am dedicated to enhancing the quality of life for seniors, creating engaging programs that promote physical, mental and emotional well-being. I strive to make every day meaningful and enjoyable for the residents.

Outside of work I cherish my roles as mom to my daughters and Nan to my amazing grandchildren. I love spending time with my family and friends, going to sporting events and finding new adventures. My personal experiences inspire my professional work, reminding me every day of the importance of community, compassion and creativity in caring for others.

Justice Reyes, Director of Food Services

foodservicescw@advenagroup.com

I started out as a CNA in 2022 and I really enjoyed being a caregiver. When the opportunity arose to become the dietary manager, I was excited to be able to take caregiving to a different category. I am happy to be able to work in dietary because everyone likes food and it’s a good way to make people happy and show them you care. My goal is to take dietary to a new level and show everyone that caregiving comes in many different forms.
