We have all been impacted by the distancing policies put in place around our communities due to COVID-19. While we must limit visitors in our building to keep everyone safe, we encourage you to set up a communication plan with your loved one ahead of time. Make sure you know how to use a video call platform and set up a time to check in with them. Maybe even do a test call before they check in. You will all feel better for the little extra planning!
It is Jean Friday for our staff today! While we enjoy the option to wear jeans on Fridays, we also enjoy it as an opportunity to give back. Each month there is a designated cause with all money raised for month going directly to that cause - everything from helping staff during difficult times to local non-profits in our region.
Last month, thanks to our staff, we were able to donate over $500 to the Family Visitation Center. It makes the heart feel good to do good :)
