On August 8, 2025, I did a first in my life. I delivered memory bears that had been crafted by hospice volunteers made from Mrs. Holmes' clothing. I had never met Mr. Holmes or his wife, Nancy, but I know what the family was experiencing and happy to offer bereavement support.

Help us welcome two new nurse practitioners to Mosaic Life Care — Darci Feiden, APRN and Valerie Watts, APRN.

“The best environment to work with a patient is one in which they feel comfortable," says Darci. "It is truly about finding out who my patients are and meeting them where they are.”

“Everybody comes from different walks in life and that to me is so precious,” says Valerie. “Being able to learn something about each patient helps me to care for them with an open mind and open heart.”

Get in touch with Darci and Valerie at Mosaic Life Care at St. Joseph – Internal Medicine Plaza 2 — https://www.mymlc.com/Main/Location/st-joseph-mo/mosaic-life-care-at-st.-joseph-medical-center/plaza-2/Internal-Medicine-Plaza2/

During Caregiver Week last week, we also celebrated annual service awards. These awards honor caregivers who have shown dedication and loyalty to Mosaic. Service awards are given in five-year increments, beginning at five years of service.

Those celebrating service awards were recognized at a gathering with their leaders during caregiver week. Thank you to all of our caregivers for your many years of service to our patients and each other!

Guest speakers from Mayo Clinic joined us this week for Addressing Su***de and Trauma. Local mental health professionals gathered to learn strategies to better understand and help, not only those who may be having suicidal thoughts, but also those who are affected by the loss of someone who has committed su***de.

This interactive session included opportunities to practice specific strategies during small group discussions. Participants also received Continuing Education Units from the MoWest Social Work Department.
