Last week Colorado suffered one of the most devastating floods in state history. Some people lost their lives. Some lost all of their possessions. Hundreds of people were displaced from their homes. Many are still evacuated and have yet to determine how severe the damage was. Thousands of people experienced damage to their homes, requiring costly and challenging repair.
Many people in the Imagine! network of employees, providers, and clients were affected by this disaster. Nine of our residential sites had significant flooding, causing significant property damage for some of the live-in staff that support these sites.
During these extraordinary times, our employees and providers provided extraordinary support for our clients-- working exceptionally long hours while replacement staff were unable to reach the site or dealing with crises of their own. Last week was Direct Support Professional (DSP) Recognition Week, and our amazing staff and providers showed us through their courageous actions why they deserve the highest recognition we can offer!
In the coming days and weeks, we will be using this forum to share some of these stories to honor the unfathomable hard work, heroism, and dedication that these staff and providers offered to shepherd us through this difficult experience.
From all of us at Innovations, thank you to our staff and providers for everything you did and will do to help get us through this disaster!
