Letter to the editor: Good time to thank senior care workers

Tribune-Review | Saturday, December 25, 2021 9:00 a.m.

While many of us are celebrating the holidays with our families, please take a moment to thank the many dedicated and brave workers at Pennsylvania’s senior care facilities, including nursing homes. Since the pandemic began in March 2020, nursing homes have been ground zero for the virus. What may surprise some is that the pandemic remains a very real risk to nursing home residents and workers.

Yet day after day, workers show true professionalism by caring for Pennsylvania’s most vulnerable citizens, even when many of us are home enjoying the company of our loved ones.

Let’s take a moment to think of them and all of their sacrifices since the pandemic began, because those sacrifices continue.
