Freedom Home Care’s Year in Review 2019

Another year has come and gone. The year 2019 was a great one for many, and we, at Freedom Home Care, have a lot to be thankful for. Because of this, we are going to take a look back at 2019 and talk about some of the great events we hosted last year.

Events Hosted by Freedom Home Care in 2019

There were a lot of great events that happened at Freedom Home Care in 2019. Check out some of our favorites below.

  • Nurses and Purses – In May, during Nurse Appreciation Week, Freedom Home Care had a Nurses and Purses event. This event was for RNs, LPNs, and CNAs. This event gave out some delicious food and drinks, as well as some beautiful purses. Every nurse that showed up got a purse, and five lucky winners got a big purse from the raffle. It was a great way for us to appreciate all the great work that nurses do!
  • Food for Thought
  • Food for Thought – At the end of May, Greg Borzo gave us a presentation during one of our Lunch and Lecture events. This event happened at the Dickinson Hall Senior Center in Lake Forest, and it was fun and educational for all. Food for Thought occurs every month and is sponsord by Freedom Home Care. Check out the upcoming Food for Thought event for February 2020 here.
  • Backyard Bash – At the beginning of June, we had a backyard BBQ bash with delicious food and the musical stylings of LJ Slavin who is an award-winning multi-instrumentalist. Slavin is well-versed on the flute, fiddle, mandolin, banjo, and so much more. It was a fun event for ears and taste buds! We host multiple Backyard Bashes over the Summer.
