At Covenant Health Network (CHN), we recognize the dedication of those working in senior care. To show our gratitude and recognition for those who show up every day to care for Arizona's seniors, we are rolling out "Caring for our Care Force," an initiative funded by a generous $186,702 Community Reinvestment grant from Mercy C.A.R.E.S.
About the Program
“Caring for our Care Force” offers evidence-based emotional wellness workshops to the direct care and supervisory staff of nursing homes and assisted living centers. The workshops are a partnership between CHN and two faculty members of Louisiana State University’s Department of Psychology, Dr. Matthew Calamia and Dr. Rebecca Brossoit. Focusing on practical skills for navigating work and home life, CHN is proud to invest in the well-being of senior care staff.
How to Get Involved
CHN is actively inviting nursing facilities and assisted living centers who serve Mercy Care enrollees to participate in this important initiative. If you would like to learn more about the program for your staff, please contact Cheryl Goodwin at cgoodwin@covenanthealthnetwork.org.
About the Partners
Mercy C.A.R.E.S., which stands for Community Action Resources Education and Service, is Mercy Care’s community giving initiative. Through grant funding, sponsorships, volunteer efforts and board participation, Mercy C.A.R.E.S. supports AHCCCS’ Whole Person Care Initiative, which addresses Social Risk Factors to improve health outcomes.
This is the first time that CHN has been awarded a Mercy C.A.R.E.S. grant, a milestone that deepens our 25-year commitment to supporting mission-driven senior-serving providers. Since 1997, CHN has offered resources, partnerships, and donated more than $30 million in charitable contributions to network members.
