February Employee of the Month:
Glenn Davenport👏🏼🎉
We are delighted to recognize Glenn Davenport as our Employee of the Month for February! Glenn joined the Hattie Ide Chaffee Home family in November 2024 as a valued member of our facilities department, and in just over a year, he has proven himself to be a valued part of our team.
Glenn consistently demonstrates the qualities we value most in our staff. He brings a pleasant and friendly demeanor to work each day, creating a positive atmosphere wherever he goes. His willingness to help with whatever is needed makes him someone our entire team can count on.
Outside of work, Glenn is a devoted family man and enjoys being outdoors. Most importantly, he’s a dedicated father to his three children and is actively involved in supporting his daughter’s basketball pursuits.
Please join us in congratulating Glenn on this well-deserved recognition. Thank you, Glenn, for your outstanding contributions to the Hattie Ide Chaffee Home! 🎉

With this snowstorm heading our way, we want to remind everyone to look out for each other.
Check in on your elderly neighbors and anyone who might need extra help. Reach out to friends and family, especially those who live alone or might be isolated during the storm. A simple phone call or text can mean so much to someone who’s weathering this alone.
Consider offering to shovel for someone who can’t do it themselves, it could make all the difference for them.
Let’s be patient and kind with each other out there. Roads will be tricky, everyone’s doing their best, and a little grace goes a long way.
We’re all in this together. Stay safe, stay warm, and take care of one another. 🩵❄️

🎵 Our First Creative Expression Session with Jessica Kaela!

We started by introducing ourselves and handing out instruments. Then we asked some beautiful questions:

“Who remembers dancing to music?”
“What songs make you smile?”
“What song feels peaceful to you?”

We played favorite songs and memories, we tapped along, and listened to the stories behind the music. Memories were written down.

Then something wonderful happened, we turned those memories into our own song! Here’s what we created together: 🎶

DAY AT THE BEACH
We’re at the beach
the ocean waves
babies laughing all the way
birds chirping taste the salt air
and ice cream and iced coffee too
relaxing on our warm cozy blanket
soaking up the summer sun
country tunes in our bathing suit

Thank you to everyone who opened their hearts today. What a beautiful day!💙

❄️In winter’s silent embrace, when the world rests beneath fresh snow, life moves on, gentle swans gracing the pond, a testament that beauty never truly sleeps. 🦢 ❄️
