caring counts WINTER 2021 THE ELDERSPAN NEWSLETTER CELEBRATING OVER 25 YEARS OF QUALITY, CARING SERVICE! We hope all of you had a wonderful holiday season with those you love, even if celebrations had to be virtual! Each of our ElderSpan-managed buildings were full of Christmas cheer, as you can tell by the surrounding photos. Residents helped trim the tree, enjoyed visits from Santa Claus, participated in door decorating contests, and sang Christmas carols together. Family members and friends were sorely missed at the annual Family Christmas parties, but we look forward to the joyful day when we can all be together once again. In this issue we are recognizing staff members who are celebrating anniversaries with ElderSpan. Our staff members are the heart and soul of our organization and we are very grateful for them. Please join us in expressing appreciation to them and to all our staff for their outstanding service and commitment to our residents.
