Tuesday, May 19th is Support Worker Day, and we’d like to send a big thank you to all of our dedicated, amazing support staff. Every day, CarePartners CSWs support patients and patient families in countless ways across the province. They bring comfort and warmth with their words and actions, and for patients, a smile and some warm words from a CSW may be just what they need to get through a challenging time. These therapeutic interactions are a huge point of light for patients, in what can sometimes be a very isolating experience. Our skilled support workers bring value to our healthcare team and we appreciate you! Please join us in giving a heartfelt thanks to all CarePartners support workers!
