Troy Center: Nurses Appreciation Week
During National Nurses Appreciation Week (May 8 – May 12), the nursing staff at the cozy 78-bed skilled nursing facility, Troy Center, on Marvin Avenue, was treated to a catered lunch plus a raffle where prizes ranged from winning a patio set to enjoy a new set of Apple Air Pods or even a tasty bottle of wine.
"The nursing staff here is great and they work like a close-knit family," said Administrator Mendy Shepherd. "Everything they do for our residents is priceless and we are so lucky to have each and everyone one of them."
Following National Nurses Appreciation Week was National Nursing Home Week which took place during the week of May 15.

Care. Support. Positive Outcomes. Centers Health Care.
Centers Health Care provides rehabilitation, skilled nursing and long-term care for people with a wide range of needs. Whether someone is recovering from surgery, managing an illness or simply needs more support than can be provided at home, our staff is there to help.
The goal is not exactly the same for everyone. It may be returning home, becoming stronger, staying independent or simply feeling better and more comfortable from one day to the next. There will be progress, setbacks and difficult days along the way. Our job is to be there through all of it, and to help each patient or resident get as far as he or she can.
Sometimes that progress comes in large steps. More often, it comes in small ones. Either way, every step matters.
Our Steps to Home series follows patients through rehabilitation and the journey from hospital to home:
