COVID-19 SPECIAL MOMENT – UNIVERSAL HEALTH CARE/FLETCHER HOSTS FAMILY PARADE

This week’s COVID-19 special moment is from Universal Health Care in Fletcher, NC. In celebration of National Skilled Nursing Care Week, facility staff organized special activities for both the residents and staff which included a Family Parade on Wednesday, May 13^th!

“There weren’t many dry eyes to be found at Universal Health Care/Fletcher when family members of residents drove through the facility’s parking lot, waving, cheering and holding signs for the loved ones many haven’t seen in two months. The celebration kicked off with Fletcher Mayor Rod Whiteside reading an official proclamation in support of National Skilled Nursing Care Week over the facility’s intercom for all residents and staff to hear.” Click here to view images from the Blue Ridge Now Times-News Online.
