Santa Claus and Quality Health Care?

Do you believe in Santa Claus?  Well Santa Claus “ is a figure which was derived from the Dutch figure of Sinterklaas, a historical, legendary figure who in many Western cultures, is said to bring gifts to the homes of the good children during the late evening and overnight hours of Christmas Eve, December 24.”-taken from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.  Santa is a wonderful icon; he brings hope, joy, and comfort and of course, presents that make Christmas even more enchanting time of year.  Children all over the world believe in Santa Claus.

Now, to all you adults…do you believe in quality health care?  I know it’s a stretch from Santa but it is Christmas and I thought Santa would be a definite eye catcher.  Like Santa Claus, quality health care inspires hope, joy and comfort…and sometimes presents too!  And we would love for you adults to believe in the high quality healthcare that St. Joseph Manor provides each and every day.

Healthcare isn’t just about providing medication and other skilled nursing procedures and services (although that is HUGE) it’s about love, life and laughter - enabling those to live life to the fullest each day.  St. Joseph Manor attends to the body, mind and spirit by providing recreational activities 7 days a week and spiritual care to all.  We live our mission:  Our Catholic ministry of compassionate healthcare provides person-centered services to people of all faiths in our home and within our community.  

So here is a short video that shows you how we live our mission each and every day!  And we hope that by seeing us in action, you will believe in high quality healthcare…and maybe even Santa too! 

 


Have a blessed season,
Miss Manor
