Long term care shines at 19th anniversary of Remember ME

MHCA celebrated its 19th annual Remember ME Photography Exhibit and Recognition Ceremony at the Augusta Civic Center yesterday. This year, recipients had the option of attending the event live with COVID-19 safety protocols in place or watching the ceremony via a live stream. Of the 32 winners, approximately half chose in person and half chose the virtual option, making for a successful hybrid event. View it here: https://www.mehca.org/rememberme2022. 
 
MHCA staff applauded the accomplishments of this year's honorees, citing the day as the “best day of the year for Maine Health Care Association.” Award recipients range in age from 37-100, bringing our total to 672 deserving individuals since the inception of the program.
