We take immense pride in recognizing all our dedicated employees who go above and beyond to provide exceptional care and safety in our facilities. This year, we are thrilled to announce Hilda Zepeda from Mission Skilled Nursing & Subacute Center in Santa Clara as our 2025 Northern California Car Giveaway grand-prize winner!

For over 23 years, Hilda has been a dedicated and invaluable member of our team, working tirelessly to maintain a safe, clean, and welcoming environment for both patients and staff. Her strong commitment to infection control and patient safety makes her an exceptional asset. Hilda’s hard work and daily dedication—even commuting by bus to serve our patients—has now been rewarded with a brand-new red 2025 Hyundai Elantra! She is excited to get her driver’s license and experience the freedom and independence that comes with it.

Join us in celebrating Hilda! Drop a ❤️ in the comments to congratulate her on this well-deserved recognition!
