My husband went into skilled care after a hospitalization. He developed sepsis and is now under hospice care but still in the same convalescent home. The nurses and CNAs have been wonderful throughout his 5 weeks here. It is likely that he will transition soon and at some point I would like to show my appreciation for their excellent care. Are gift cards the only solution?

I would ask the person who is in charge. I feel when someone does a good job over and above, showing appreciation is always nice. Its a good feeling when ur appreciated. We had a client that had special cookies sent to us. I made a big platter of cookies at Christmas for the aides at Moms AL. At the NH, dropped off banana bread. You can have trays of sandwiches delivered for each shift.

I'm not sure other than a very heartfelt thanks and a letter to their superiors. At my mom's assisted living facility, no gifts were allowed, including small tokens of appreciation. At the hospital where I worked, individual workers were not allowed to receive anything from a patient greater than $15.00 in value. You can understand the reasoning for this, right? After my husband's ICU stay, we gifted the whole unit with sweet treats, which were appreciated. Check out your facility's policy on this.

I am so sorry you are going through this.

A big basket or box of assorted snack foods for the break room is always appreciated. And a note sharing your appreciation is always kind
