Oxford Healthcare Center Employee Appreciation
Donation protected
My mother, Nina Kraan, just passed away (12/30/2020) after suffering her third stroke. She had been a resident at Oxford Healthcare Center (Formerly known as Liberty, Premiere Estates, Pristine) Nursing Home since 2015, after she suffered a stroke that left her ability to function very limited. Despite her physical limitations, she persisted, and remained highly independent in that controlled environment. She came to love the employees at the facility, and they returned her love two-fold! Every glitch in my mother’s health was met with as strong an emotion by every staff member there, as I felt!
Like other Skilled Nursing Facilities around the country, Oxford Healthcare has closed down its doors to visitors since the start of the Pandemic. It has been nearly 300 days since family members have been able to visit their loved ones, and the employees at these facilities have played a more important role in the residents’ lives. Like many nursing homes, staff are underpaid, overworked, and in addition to their job requirements as nurses, aides, kitchen, maintenance, janitorial, and so on, they are playing the role of family members during birthdays, anniversaries, holidays. They are comforting residents when they miss their family or miss out on the birth of grandkids.
I want to leverage my mother’s legacy, and the love she shared with people, to THANK all the AMAZING employees at her Nursing Facility! A place she came to know as home for these past few years, and a place where she was as loved as much as she loved! Realistic or not, my goal is to raise $10,000 to give each of the roughly 50 employees at her nursing home a nice cash “Thank you” gift, for all they have done for my mom, as well as all other residents!
I plan on closing down this fundraiser on February 27th, 2021, which would have been my mother's 78th birthday.
Thank you very much
