This theme honors those resilient individuals who worked so hard, went above and beyond, and never gave up during the COVID-19 pandemic. The pandemic has been an enormous, unprecedented challenge. But it has also brought together assisted living residents, staff, and everyone in these communities in a way unlike before. When times were tough, staff members were there to lend an ear and their hearts. When mothers, fathers, daughters, sons, sisters, and brothers could not physically be together, caregivers became family. And even when things seemed impossible, essential assisted living staff continued to deliver the highest quality care.
Assisted living communities around the country are encouraged to host a variety of events that celebrate residents, staff, and volunteers while adhering to infection control requirements and precautions in place for COVID-19. Thank you to official sponsor First Quality for supporting this unique and special celebration! Share your activity ideas on the NALW Facebook page.
