AseraCare Salutes Nurses

National Nurses Week, May 6 - 12

Message from Neil Kurtz, President and CEO, Golden Living; Cindy Susienka, President and CEO, Golden Innovations; and Larry Deans, President, Golden LivingCenters:

National Nurses Week is a great time to let all of our nurses throughout the Golden Living companies know how much we appreciate the commitment, integrity and knowledge they bring to their jobs ever day of the year.

These dedicated caregivers are part of the foundation of our company. Nurses are vital to our mission of providing loving, compassionate and quality care to our patients and residents. Whether it is a long-term care nurse helping our LivingCenter residents live their lives to the fullest, or a hospice nurse who provides care and comfort at the end of life, or a home care nurse whose support enables patients to remain in their homes -- nurses are an important component of our clinical team.

Our Golden Living nurses are special for more than just their clinical skills. Because of the nature of our work, our nurses truly become part of our patients' family. Their ability to not only provide outstanding clinical care but also spiritual and emotional support to our patients makes them exceptional people and sets them apart. The quality of life we provide to our patients and residents is a direct result of the comprehensive abilities and caring nature of our nurses.

Please take a moment to recognize the nurses in your life, and join us in thanking them for everything they do for our patients and residents.
