We’re taking a break for the next 2 weeks but don’t worry.  We’re still monitoring all of the news that is important to our readers – that never takes a break.   You’ll receive news pieces in your inbox starting again on January 4, 2021.  In the interim, the Blog is available for you to review current and past pieces.  You can scroll through the blogs, use the categories to the left on any webpage or use the Search blog feature beneath all of the categories to find the news and resources that you need.

We wish all of our readers a happy holiday season!  May your facility/agency family activities bring you joy and peace during this extremely difficult time.  We hope that you’re able to step away from your duties for a bit to enjoy your own families.  Please take care of yourselves and continue to follow all precautions to keep you safe during this pandemic.  I consider the COVID-19 vaccines to be a gift to all of humanity, so I am extremely thankful for them (not sure if Santa had anything to do with it – likely a higher power!)  With the vaccine, continued mitigation efforts and the gift of our healthcare workers, 2021 will hopefully be a healthier and safer year than the year we’re about to bid goodbye.

All of the Briggs’ family members – Briggs Healthcare, SimpleLTC, SimplePBJ and Selman-Holman – thank you so much for all you do for the patients and residents you care for!!  We look forward to continuing to support you in 2021.
