“
Thank
y
ou
”
–
m
ost of us say th
e
se words many times a day: buying a coffee,
having a meal delivered
,
completing household chores
, and so on
. We say it often, but what does
saying
“
thank you
”
actually
accomplish
? Thank you has a power that can bind people together and increase the mental well
-
being of both the
thanked and the
thanker.
As
Walt Disney once said, “The greatest moments in life are not concerned with selfish achievements but rather with the things we do for the people we love and esteem, and whose respect we need.”
These
two words
–
“
t
hank you
”
–
are
so
powerful
,
yet
they
fall short
of
fully encompass
ing
our gratitude to the nurses in the skilled nu
rsing field go
ing
in and out
of harm
’
s way
every
day
,
making sure our loved ones are taken care of
.
We
greatly appreciate everything they do
,
especially
since
the pandemic
began
,
during which time
they’ve
bravely
served our communities
in the face of personal risk.
During the worst
of COVID-19,
w
hile the rest of us
were
at home
tr
ying
to stay safe
,
nurses in the skilled nursing space
were
on the front lines
.
Even though they may not
wear capes, they
are
the
superheroes
that
rose
to the occasion
,
putting themselves selflessly out there in dangerous and uncharted territories every day – from New York to California
and
all around the world – taking care of the most vulnerable in our communities.
As a software company
that
supports
s
enior
c
are and
s
killed
n
ursing payroll and
human capital management (
HCM
)
,
we
’ve
watched our clients persevere
during
the last
1
4
months in spite of endless challenges.
To all
nurses,
t
hank you for
every
sacrifice that you are making to
care for and
bring
comfort
and
smiles
to
those we
love
. We recognize your
daily
efforts and are truly grateful for
everything
that you all do.
Offering our thanks is important, but a
s Dan Neuburger (CEO of Viventium) says, “Don’t just tell me. Show me.”
T
hroughout
l
ast year, our employees and their families creat
ed
thank you cards
to celebrate
and show our gratitude
to
nurses
and health care professionals
.
We still love seeing the cheerful artwork
that
kids created amidst the chaos to share their thanks.
A
s part of our 2020 company
year
-
end
celebration
,
w
e were
also
inspired to donate to
the
Coronavirus Response Fund for Nurses th
r
ough the American Nurses Foundation
,
whose purpose is to
support the mental health of nurses, ensure nurses have access to the latest science information
,
and
provid
e
direct financial assistance to nurses facing hardships due to a COVID diagnosis
.
And recently, a
t the start of 2021, w
e celebrated the “
Top 20 Nurses of 2020
”
with our friends at
Apploi
by participating as one of the judges
,
which
was difficult since there are so many incredible nurses out there.
While these gestures are small in comparison to the efforts
made by nurses
across the country each
and every
day –
to
every
skilled
nurse
,
we want you to know
your efforts are noticed
and you inspire us to serve you.
Thank you!
