November marks National Family Caregivers Month, a time to honor the dedication and resilience of caregivers across the nation.
Caregiving is both rewarding and challenging, often requiring selflessness, patience, and an unending supply of compassion. During this special month, area agencies on aging and organizations like The Senior Alliance work tirelessly to support caregivers, providing resources, respite, and advocacy to lighten their load and acknowledge their sacrifices.
Learn more in this month’s special blog post, dedicated to celebrating the caregivers in our community.
We are thrilled to honor Setal Gould as our Star of the Month!
Here’s what her manager, Alicia, has to say about her:
“I would like to nominate Setal for Star of the Month in recognition of her outstanding contributions and consistent hard work. Over the past few months, Setal has gone above and beyond in her role, working overtime and providing invaluable support to both the Fiscal Department and I&A department.
Setal’s dedication and strong work ethic does not go unnoticed. She is highly knowledgeable and always willing to assist clients who reach out to the agency, ensuring that each interaction is handled with care and professionalism.
In addition to her technical skills, Setal is a positive and supportive presence within the team. She is always ready to lend a helping hand to colleagues, contributing to a collaborative work environment. Her enthusiasm, problem-solving abilities, and willingness to go the extra mile have been essential to the team’s ongoing success.
Setal, thank you for all that you do. Your hard work and commitment make a real difference, and I truly appreciate everything you contribute to the team.”
And from all of us at The Senior Alliance, thank you, Setal, for being such a dedicated, supportive part of our team. We appreciate all you do!
