Happy #NationalNursesDay to those working selflessly and endlessly to provide comfort and care every day. To all of our heroes in scrubs instead of capes, you are appreciated and the world is a better place because of you.

"I feel so safe in this epidemic. If I was at home, I wouldn't be as protected or as guarded as I am here." Although things are far from normal right now, we are continuing to provide a variety of healthy, nutritious, and delicious meals. New protocols have been developed and implemented to specifically address the safety of both residents and associates. #HolidayStrong #StrongerTogether

Happy Earth Day! All Holiday communities are celebrating in their own way this year while practicing social distancing to keep residents and associates safe!

Did you know that as a Holiday resident, you are given a GreatCall device at move-in? GreatCall agents are always available to take action for emergency situations, but they are also available if you just need to talk. Some residents even use GreatCall agents to help them feel safe when out for an evening stroll. It also takes away the anxiety of being home alone, knowing you always have someone to call. Just press the button on your GreatCall device! https://bit.ly/2VutAR3
