Calgary Organize A Thank You Luncheon
A thank you luncheon was held to celebrate five dedicated Health Care Workers for providing 24-hour home care. This was organized by the Classic LifeCare Calgary team who were supported by the client’s family.
Classic LifeCare Calgary Organize A Thank You Luncheon
Kelsey Koehn, Client Care Coordinator, arranged the luncheon to thank the Calgary employees. They spent time with their client, Dorothy, and her daughter, Barbara during the lunch.
“Dorothy has five regular Health Care Workers who provide 24-hour home care for her,” says Kelsey. “They are always very easy to work with and willing to be flexible. They always make sure Dorothy is never without care.”
Kelsey said a recent scheduling conflict had her scrambling to coordinate care for Dorothy. Again, her team of Health Care Workers helped out, made it work.
“Rather than just send them a thank you or a gift card, I wanted to do something really special to let them know how much Classic appreciates them,” says Kelsey.
Teamwork Makes The Lunch A Success
She contacted Barbara, who was happy to help her plan a luncheon at Dorothy’s house to thank the valued employees.
“Barbara was really happy to help and it was important we had the lunch at her mom’s house because she needs 24-hour support and we didn’t want one of the employees to miss out.”
Britney Didier-Shaw, Executive Leader – Alberta – attended the event and says Kelsey did an incredible job making the employees feel appreciated.
“I also witnessed a very grateful daughter (Barbara) for the chance to meet Kelsey in person after all the years they’ve spoken on the phone,” says Britney. “And, clearly, the respect she paid Kelsey.”
Kelsey says the employees loved the luncheon and plan to make it an annual event – next time as a potluck.
