Local Charity Events
Andy and I (Nate) represented Homewatch CareGivers in supporting Heart and Home Hospice with their Toys for Tots and Treasure Valley Hospice with their coats for the Boise Rescue Mission Ministries' shelter for women. This took place at a local event called In the Mix. It was held at Brookdale Senior Living in Boise. It was nice to get out and support these worthwhile causes and network with some great people!
Healthcare Parade for Senior Communities
A few weeks ago Andy and I (Nate) participated in a Christmas healthcare parade which consisted of members of the healthcare community traveling to various assisted living, independent living and skilled nursing communities. We witnessed many of the residents at these communities show their gratitude by their smiles and waves as we drove by the entrances and saw them waving in their windows. We are hoping it brought some joy and gladness during this time when most of them are isolated from their families except by technology. Here’s to hoping 2021 will bring us closer sooner to finding solutions to the challenges that have faced in 2020!
Great visit to Spring Creek Eagle to honor Barbara for their Adopt a Grandparent program Lisa has organized. It’s difficult for these residents who can’t have visitors yet due to COVID. It’s great to see these creative ways of connecting with our seniors! As a caregiving agency serving Boise, Meridian, Eagle, Nampa, Caldwell, Emmett and Star we continue to partner with great companies in our community whether they be assisted living, home health or hospice agencies. We are all here to serve our senior population!
Stopped by to check on one of our healthcare partners today, Horizon Home Health and Hospice. They are doing well managing their business through these challenging times. They provide great care for their patients and are a great community partner in the Treasure Valley!
We were honored to participate in a Red Cross Blood drive with First Choice Home Health and Hospice.
The need for blood has continued through this COVID-19 crisis and we were happy to have our senior caregiving agency help support them.
We were grateful to be part of this healthcare group who completed our last of five days of parades. The group included representatives from the senior care industry who represented companies who provide in home caregiving, home health and hospice and on-demand emergent health. We were proud to represent our in home and facility caregivers who provide care for some of these facilities. We visited local senior living communities which included assisted living, independent living, memory care, skilled nursing and rehabilitation in Boise, Meridian, Eagle, Star, Nampa and Caldwell. We received a lot of positive feedback from the residents of these communities who have mostly been confined due to Covid 19.
Andy and Nate represented our in home senior care services at a parade at Touchmark Meadow Like Village in Meridian driving Andy’s convertible corvette! The parade was well represented by the community and wandered throughout the community. We have now visited senior living communities with our health care parade friends in Boise, Meridian, Nampa, Eagle, Star and Caldwell.
We were fortunate to be able to participate in a parade to help uplift the spirits of residents at local Assisted Living and Independent Living communities here in the Treasure Valley. 2 days and 22 stops with partners in our community in Boise, Meridian, Nampa, Eagle, Star, and Caldwell! What a great experience it was to see all the smiles of the residents and caregivers. Andy and Nate represented our home care company well!
