We've been having loads of fun over the past 16 days celebrating our 75th Anniversary, our staff, and the upcoming holidays!

In Case You Missed It:
🥒 The Pickle has been an elusive challenge for our employees, but some have simply just been a jar ahead.
🎄 We have several trees around the facility, plus some "humerus" holiday decor.
🎁 Our employees have been picking up their employee gifts, including a turkey or ham to cook up for family and friends this Christmas.
1️⃣5️⃣ 15 Days of Christmas is coming to a close soon, with some surprise drawings, exciting gifts, and double trouble!

❄️ As a reminder, Meeker Family Health Center, Colorado Advanced Orthopedics, and Meeker Drugs at PMC will be closed on Christmas Day (25th). See our Holiday Hours post for more details. ❄️

🎄We’re getting ready for our 4th annual white elephant gift exchange with our management team!

Every year, Administration treats the departmental leaders to a homemade soup lunch to enjoy during a chaotically entertaining gift exchange. We are incredibly grateful for our strong team of leaders that work incessantly to care for our patients, families, and community. 🎄

🚧🎄 🥒
The Christmas elves have been busy putting up and decorating the main lobby Christmas tree in preparation for next week's highly anticipated Annual Christmas Tree Pickle Search. The Employee Committee has a long-standing tradition of hiding "pickle" ornaments in the tree early every morning, and employees that find and turn in a pickle can receive up to $20 in Meeker Bucks!

🎄❄️🎄We're off to a joyous December start with our annual employee "15 Days of Christmas" gift drawings! This year, the Employee Committee has curated an excellent range of gifts for employees to have a chance at taking home, such as several $150 gift card to shop at local businesses, a Nespresso machine, and even some Airpods 3!

Thank you to our Employee Committee for organizing this year-after-year, and congratulations to our two winners so far, Nichole J. and Jess K.!🎄❄️🎄

IN MEMORY OF TAMMY NORTH:

Since we opened our doors 75 years ago, few people have cared so deeply and profoundly as Tammy did for our residents, staff, and patients. Many of our staff have had the privilege of working alongside Tammy over the years, both in the first building and then in the new facility. She was there when we made the big move in 2016, and she continued to be a core part of our team for many years after. She has been there through the thickest and the thinnest of our organization's years and blessed the lives of so many of our community members, both past and present. Her tenure with Pioneers was a long-standing, selfless commitment to caring for those in their most vulnerable moments. There is no doubt that so many of us are better people now because of Tammy's generosity, empathy, and down-to-earth love. We will deeply miss her vibrant energy and charismatic compassion, and her memory will continue to be a strong reminder for us to be kind and care for one another.
