RESIDENTS PARTICIPATE IN VIRGINIA TECH'S REMEMBRANCE RUN
Virginia Tech’s 3.2-mile Run in Remembrance was offered as a virtual event this year. From April 16-18, Hokies (we’re all Hokies in this effort!) could run, walk, or jog on their own, and this year, that included a supportive group of Warm Hearth Village residents.
John Hillison and Dr. Richard Shepherd mapped 3.2 miles on the Warm Hearth campus and recruited 26 residents and employees to participate on April 17. 

Shepherd said, “For me, the run is a way to honor the 32 souls who were lost and a way to keep their memory alive. It's also a reminder that each and every day is a gift and an opportunity to show kindness to our fellow human beings.”

WARM HEARTH AT HOME SUCCESS STORY
Our clients value the professionalism and compassion of our nurses, CNAs, therapists and caregivers. We hear over and over how important it is to them to find trustworthy and respectful caregivers when working with them in their home.

Patty has placed her trust in our team to help her during the pandemic and beyond.  She says, "After I was in the hospital last year, the nurses and therapists came to me in my home to work with me and help me get my strength back. Today I still use Warm Hearth at Home's home care services. All the staff are wonderful, but Amala is my favorite. They are not just aides; they are my friends and my family." 

To learn how Warm Hearth at Home can help you, please call Michelle Narramore at (540) 443-3428.
