The election itself highlighted the community’s commitment to shaping their living environment. By voicing collective needs, the council aims to ensure better communication and responsiveness within the care home.
The newly elected council will now work to strengthen resident involvement at Clemens-Kessler House. Their responsibilities include addressing concerns and proposing changes to enhance quality of life.
