LOWVILLE,
NY─ The Lewis County Residential Health Care Facility (RHCF) celebrated

lives and how the caregivers enrich residents' lives through their acts of
caring and
kindness.
On Tuesday, May

the 2023 Caregivers of the Year. LCHS Chief Executive Officer Gerald

Administrator Debra Wurz.

nominated Caregivers for going above and beyond to provide care and support for

"We are
fortunate to have such a dedicated team to provide safe, compassionate care
for residents," said Debra Wurz, Nursing Home Administrator.
Other Skilled
Nursing Care Week events included: a lumberjack pancake breakfast, sock hop

classic car show, entertainment by the 10th Mountain Division Band, a movie
day outing to the Lowville Town Hall Theater for a special viewing of the
