🌟 Tuesday Tip with CEO Lynn Flanagan 🌟

Caregivers often give so much of themselves that they forget one crucial thing: their wellbeing matters too. Today, Lynn offers a thoughtful reminder about what burnout can look like long before it becomes overwhelming — and why noticing those early signals is an act of strength, not weakness.

At Ancora Compassionate Care, support isn’t just something we talk about — it’s something we provide. Whether it’s emotional guidance, time to recharge, or simply someone to listen, help is always within reach.

🎥 Make sure to watch to the very end — Lynn shares practical takeaways you can screenshot and save for whenever you need a moment of grounding.💙

Today we remember Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., whose legacy continues to inspire compassion, kindness, and service.

At Ancora, we strive to reflect those values in the way we walk alongside patients and families—offering comfort, dignity, and hope when they need it most.

Wishing everyone a meaningful day of reflection and service.

Sharing these good self-care reminders from our Ancora Compassionate Care Grief Support page.

If you don't already follow this page, we encourage you to do so - always lots of great tips and information.

For this first self care Friday of the new year let’s start with a goal of practicing gratitude, even on the bad days. Gratitude doesn’t erase pain or struggle, but it can help you face it with hope in reminders that there is still good in the world.
