Last week, Harrahâs Philadelphia donated hundreds of boxed meals and quarts of soup to local first-responders fighting tirelessly on the front lines. The food donations went to Taylor Hospital employees and Chester City paramedics, firefighters, and police.
Today, the team at Harrahâs assembled dozens of gift packages for their annual Adopt-A-Kid program benefiting local kids in Chester. The packages will be picked up by Wesley House and The Family Management Center Shelter for distribution in time for the holidays.
âAt Harrahâs, we pride ourselves on our dedication to our community,â said Chris Albrecht, Harrahâs Philadelphia General Manager. âWe are engaged locally and offer charitable contributions throughout the year, but this commitment feels especially important during the holiday season and these uncertain times.â

The Nursing Excellence Awards is a peer-nominated award, created in honor of 2020 being the âYear of the Nurse,â and in recognition of the critical role nurses have played in treating patients throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, was open to qualifying RNs and LPNs working in a direct patient care position who consistently demonstrate characteristics synonymous with nursing excellence.
Moses Taylor Hospital selected Maureen Leggiero, RN. She was chosen for being a calm, compassionate caregiver and team player during the pandemic. Her calmness and confidence has helped to allay patient fears and anxiety. Leggiero joined Moses Taylor Hospital in July 2000 and in that time has partnered with CHEMS to bring chest pain education to the community. Maureen also helped the emergency roomâs success in meeting core measure requirements and in securing the hospitalâs chest pain and stroke re-accreditations.
