Healthcare Heroes Care Fund Raising Money To Support CHI Memorial Frontline Workers Tuesday, December 15, 2020
Since early 2020, the CHI Memorial medical staff has been dealing with unprecedented challenges of treating COVID-19 patients and fighting COVID-19 in the community. CHI Memorial Foundation is now asking the Chattanooga community to support the hospital’s frontline staff by giving to a special fund called the Healthcare Heroes Care Fund.
“We are implementing a program to provide tools for our staff to take care of their emotional well-being,” explains Jennifer Nicely, CHI Memorial Foundation president. “Reducing workplace stress, increasing mental toughness, and developing strategies for staff engagement are priorities that have a positive impact on the value and quality of medical care affecting patients, care providers, and ultimately the broader community’s well-being.”
