Environmental Services

Leandro Alves, Director of Environmental Services

 Leandro joined our team at Thomas Upham House in January 2009.  He is responsible for oversight of the Laundry and Housekeeping Departments, as well as being responsible for building maintenance.  You will often see him on one knee fixing a resident’s wheelchair or having quiet conversation with someone.  Leandro and his staff are responsible for keeping us so clean; you can have “your kids sit on the floor.”  They are one of the behind the scenes departments who take enormous pride in maintaining a comfortable environment and clean linen and clothing for our residents.  Leandro leads his team with the primary focus being our residents and their families.
