To every dad who shows up, for the milestones and the ordinary Tuesdays, happy Father's Day.

This Men's Health Month, we want to remind the dads in our community that showing up for the people you love starts with taking care of yourself. That means making the appointment, getting the screening, and having the conversation with your doctor. You can't pour from an empty cup. WMCHealth is here to help you stay well for all of it.

During National Skilled Nursing Care Week (May 10-16), we proudly recognized our dedicated team members who bring compassion, creativity, and joy to our residents every day at St. Joseph's place.

The week was filled with fun activities and special moments, including one of our residents’ favorite games — the “Empty Pocket Casino” human slot machine game, bringing laughter and excitement to all involved.

We also want to recognize Activity Aides Jessica Maillet and Stacie Denella for their dedication to maintaining and caring for the Healing Garden each and every day. Their attention, care, and commitment help create a beautiful and peaceful space for our residents to enjoy.

A special thank you as well to The Home Depot in Matamoras, PA for generously donating soil for the garden.

Thank you to all of our skilled nursing teams for the compassion, energy, and heart you bring to our residents and families every day.
