What do you do when your awesome Administrator of 10 years retires?? Well, you dress her up like a dinosaur and try to take her down with nerf guns of course!! Thanks for being a great sport Cate, and an amazing Administrator!!

Another video of our residents and staff helping Cate go out with a bang!

Our staff keeps on giving!! In November we initiated a food drive for our local food bank (with a little friendly competition between floors to make it fun!). On December 14th a total of 2,111 items were donated to the food bank. Our second floor staff were our winners with a total of 1,581 items donated! Amazing job!!

If the job of a PSW was easy, there wouldn't be a shortage of them. But there is. If the job of a PSW was just cleaning residents up, they wouldn't know their favorite foods, or when they prefer coffee over tea, but they do. If the job of a PSW was insignificant, Supervisor's and Charge nurses wouldn't rely on them to identify changes out of their "normal, but they do. If the job of a PSW was to just get vitals, they would have time to sit down and talk with each resident fo...r a good thirty minutes each shift, but they don't. If the job of a PSW was to just show up and dress them, perform their assigned duties, then go home, they wouldn't leave work in tears knowing one of our residents isn't going to make it, but they do. If the job of a PSW was appreciated by their peers and colleagues, they wouldn't feel as UNVALIDATED, but it's not. If you're proud of all PSW’s copy and paste this as your status! #pswsrock #ThankaPSW A BIG THANK YOU TO ALL PSWs!!!!!!

Kudos to our staff!
