In our celebration of this year’s National CNA Week, we recognized all of our amazing caregivers. In this short video, the office team shared some words which come to mind–words which reflect how our caregivers inspire us. And we introduced our new Weekend On-Call Specialist, Melander Taylor (we are thrilled to have Melander on-board–learn more about Melander in this post). To our caregivers, you really are everything to us. Watch the video here.
