CareSouth Carolina’s Rosa Lee Gerald Office Spreads Holiday Cheer to Local Families

CareSouth Carolina’s Rosa Lee Gerald office is always looking to spread cheer, especially during the holiday season.

As part of an annual tradition, CareSouth Carolina’s Rosa Lee Gerald office came together to support patients and their families in meaningful and personal ways.

For the past six years, staff at the Rosa Lee Gerald office have made it a priority to give back during the holidays. This year, the team randomly selected three patients from their population and worked collectively to support and “adopt” their households. Each patient shared a list of family members and specific needs, allowing staff members to personally contribute and purchase gifts that brought comfort and relief during the season.

“Let our family take care of your family,” said Barbara A. Wright, FNP-C. “It’s inclusive through all seasons of the year.”

The initiative focused on more than holiday gifts. Staff members aimed to meet emotional, physical, and financial needs, recognizing that the holidays can be a difficult time for many families.

“Our staff works incredibly hard and cooperatively,” Wright added. “We’ve always done what we can for our patients, whether it’s the holidays or not. If we find out they need something, we want to do what we can to help.”

CareSouth Carolina remains committed to caring for the whole person—especially during the holiday season—by enhancing the health and well-being of everyone.
