MEDINA – Residents of Medina Memorial Hospital’s North Wing were treated to an early Thanksgiving dinner with all the trimmings last Thursday.
“This is an annual occurrence, bringing residents, families and friends together for one of the most cherished traditions of the year,” said Scott Robinson, director of marketing at Orleans Community Health. “The event is a highlight for many, as an afternoon to spend time with those we care deeply about.”
Each year the dedicated North Wing team plans and prepares this celebration with great care, Robinson said. From decorating the space to serving a seasonal meal, staff members work together to make the day special for every resident. Their efforts create an atmosphere that feels both festive and comforting, honoring the spirit of the holiday, while ensuring residents are surrounded by the people who matter the most to them.
Families and friends were invited to join their loved ones, and the turnout was truly heartwarming, Robinson said. For many, the Thanksgiving celebration is a treasured opportunity to share memories, strengthen bonds and enjoy the companionship that defines our North Wing community, he said.
Robinson added that this yearly tradition continues to be one of the most enjoyable and meaningful events the North Wing hosts. It reflects the commitment of the staff, the spirit of the residents and the strong sense of community which makes Orleans Community Health such a special place.
“We are grateful to everyone who joined us and to the team members who made this year’s celebration so memorable,” Robinson said.
The North Wing recently organized a large Halloween party for residents and visitors and will do the same for Christmas.
