Hoody hugs for healthcare heroes

March 4th, 2022

If you see someone walking around Wainwright with one of these distinctive azure blue hoodies on, you’ll know they’re a healthcare hero - the Wainwright and District Community Foundation says so! The foundation recently gave every healthcare worker in town a ‘hoody hug’ to show their appreciation for their dedication during the pandemic. These Points West Living Wainwright employee care partners were delighted to receive theirs.

Included and acknowledged

“To be included and acknowledged by an organization such as WDCHF truly warms a person’s heart,” says General Manager Carli Lopez. “It makes our employee care partners feel a part of the larger healthcare community throughout Wainwright.”

To further personalize the gift an employee care partner volunteered to use her Cricut machine to craft and apply the recipient’s name on each hoody.

Growth in community support

“Our Eden Philosophy encourages human growth to be a part of human life,” says Carli. “As our healthcare community grows and becomes more inclusive, our supports in life and at work grow stronger.”
