Residential Aide Lauded for Hard Work

For Josephine Dosado, a problem is a chance to do her best.


“I love it so much,” says the friendly woman about her job helping residents at Carveth Retirement Lodge in Gananoque. “It’s like my calling. I enjoy helping them to resolve their issues and assisting them with their daily living activities. I’m just doing my best.”


Speaking from the family owned and operated home in early March 2025, the 49-year-old smiles at the news she is the home’s Employee of the Month for April. She arrived in Canada from the Philippines in 2003 and has worked at the lodge for almost one year as a Residential Aide.


“Josephine is very friendly, dependable and extremely dedicated to her job,” attests Lodge Manager, Phyllis Lorbetskie. “She gets along with everyone; she’s a treasure.”


Visibly pleased with the feedback, Josephine won the workplace award for her hard work and helpful nature.


“The best part of my job is listening to the residents,” the friendly woman confirms. “Most of them want to talk to someone and I love to listen. It’s uplifting.”


A resident of Gananoque for the past two years, Josephine only has one regret about moving to Canada. “My one regret is winter,” she says with a laugh. “But the place is really nice.”


 


Asked to describe herself, she uses words such as hardworking and patient. When she’s around the residents, she likes to talk. She is the proud owner of a Yorkie named Cheeko, a pet that serves as Josephine’s therapy. “If I’m stressed, tired or sad - he makes me happy,” she says with a grin.


When she’s not at work, Josephine can be found playing Sudoku, gardening or cooking. “I’m not an outgoing person,” she replies when asked about her hobbies. “I don’t like shopping, and I don’t like crowded places. I don’t know why, but that’s me.”


Grateful for her time at the lodge with the residents and staff, Josephine notes, “I find it fun here. I even like to stay a little longer so I can do more with them. I love my job.”


Questions for Josephine


If you could have any superpower, what would it be?


“I want to give everyone a job. I don’t want to see people starving. I came from a Third World Country, and I’ve seen a lot of hungry children.”


If you could rule the world, what would you do on day one?


“I’d stop the wars; just love no hatred. No discrimination. We’ll start from there.”


If you weren’t at your current job, what would you be doing?


“I wanted to be a medical technologist, but I couldn’t afford the schooling. I love my job, now.”


Carveth Retirement Lodge is grateful for the good work of Josephine Dosado. To learn more about living or working in our home, please call 613-382-4752.
