PATRICK'S MESSAGE:
As you probably know, I rarely write in the Chatter or the As the Wales Turns, but here I go... Although things are quieting down COVID-19-wise, we still have regulations in place and the gradual easing of measures is more than welcome.
I am taking this opportunity to acknowledge and thank you for the excellent work ethic you have maintained in Housekeeping, Laundry, and Maintenance. We are aware of the extra tasks COVID-19 brought your way. You did not give up when others may have, and you pulled your weight to help us preserve our COVID-19-free facility; not many establishments can say the same. While these tasks are part of your job, these times are not normal or easy. Professional and personal tolls weigh on us. We will remember this time even if we want to forget.
The Wales is over one hundred years old and has been a healthcare leader ever since. We have proven anew that working together makes us strong and that we can accomplish many things and overcome many obstacles.
You are a pleasure to work with and the Wales is fortunate to have you on its team. Our ogranizational puzzle would be incomplete without you.
I am pretty sure that I share your thoughts when I say we have been looking forward to being back in the Green Zone; we are finally here! Kudos to you for your efforts in getting us this far; they have not gone unnoticed. Please continue to do what you are doing, knowing that you do make a difference.
Patrick Nolan
Maintenance Director
