Congratulations to our recent Sunflower Award recipient, Leasa Dowden-Parrott, emergency services associate, from Mosaic Life Care at St. Joseph, Medical Center, Emergency Department (ED). 🌻

Leasa's nomination reads:

“I'm nominating Leasa for going way above her tech duties to brighten a patient's day in the ED. This woman was stuck here on her birthday with high blood sugar, so no cake or celebrations possible, but Leasa didn't let that stop her. She took it upon herself to print a birthday card, rallied the staff to sign it, and made the patient feel truly special in a tough moment. Her thoughtfulness turned a rough day into something memorable, showing exactly why she's an amazing member to have on our team. Leasa's the kind of teammate who doesn't just do the job; she makes a real difference.”

As the effects of the government shutdown reach our communities, Mosaic is stepping up to help where it’s needed most — addressing food insecurity in our communities.

We’re proud to announce that Mosaic will donate $50,000 to the United Way of Greater St. Joseph to support local food programs. Even more inspiring, the Mosaic Life Care Foundation is matching that gift, bringing the total donation to $100,000! 🫶

But that’s not all – Mosaic Life Care – Philanthropy, in partnership with Second Harvest Food Bank and others, is also organizing donation drives through our hospitals and clinics in St. Joseph, Maryville and Albany to further support those in need. Together, we’re making sure no one faces this challenge alone.

We’re living our Life Care Values: Compassion, Integrity, Connection, Sustainability and Equity. This is what community looks like. This is what care looks like. 🫶

If you’d like to donate, please visit https://www.mymlc.com/grateful.
