Steve Staum is considered the consummate textbook definition of a leader who understands the concept of hands- on front- line management. He wants to hear directly from the individuals in his care, and therefore walks the facility every single morning, listening and empathizing with the residents as well as the staff of Lakeland Health Care Center. He then painstakingly ensures that any issues or concerns are promptly addressed, whether they are environmental, clinical or emotional. Steve truly has his “finger on the pulse” of Lakeland and orchestrates a harmonious atmosphere that is comforting, soothing and positive.
Steve’s genuine warmth and compassion is evident in every interaction, and his infectious smile is contagious and sincere. He provides the perfect balance while managing his staff between meticulous oversight of protocol and systems, as well as unwavering encouragement and support. Family members rave about his first-hand knowledge of each resident and what is important to them.
Steve possesses a Master’s degree in social work from Wurzweiler, and utilizes his interpersonal skills and caring personality in his daily work. His open-door policy is appreciated, and he always is approachable and available to problem- solve, brainstorm and find solid solutions. He stresses the essential nature of every single employee, no matter what their job description and their assigned tasks.
Steve would do anything for the occupants of Lakeland and takes great pride in the wonderful accomplishments and successes that occur day in and day out throughout the Center.
