During this unprecedented time, I would like to publicly thank and acknowledge our hard-working and dedicated team at All Care VNA and Hospice. The outbreak of COVID-19 has required that home care and hospice agencies adapt to a new normal in providing care to patients in the community.
At All Care, our staff, who instead of backing away from providing direct care to our patients, have continuously stepped up and faced the challenges head-on. The home health aide who provided a client and her family the ability to Face Time her husband who was hospitalized and dying with COVID-19; the hospice nurse, social worker and chaplain who visit a patient from outside of her nursing home; Face Time with her to offer her support and comfort within the confines of the new normal. The true spirit of our workforce is shining through this pandemic.
To our clinicians and home health aides who continue to work on the front line, putting themselves at risk in order to ensure our patients are cared for — thank you! And to all of our staff, thank you for your inspiration, your commitment and your compassion! We have, in my opinion, the very best professional and paraprofessional staff who continue to deliver top quality care, even in times of crisis.
We greatly appreciate your hard-work and dedication as we continue to serve the community as we have for over 100 years.
