Wisconsin Court Brings Joy to Nursing Home Residents
Last December Lisa Polnow, Treasurer and Spiritual Enhancement Chair of Court Mazzuchelli #2609, Monroe, Wisconsin, coordinated a holiday delivery to residents at Pleasant View Skilled Nursing and Rehab Facility. In addition to her other responsibilities Lisa is also the court’s ‘Sunshine’ person and takes great joy in sending cards to CDA members on special occasions and in times of need. She wanted to extend this joy to isolated nursing home residents during the pandemic so she prepared holiday cards and 2021 calendars donated from court members Financial Secretary Sharon Knight, Jo-Ann Esser, Past National Director M. Susan Hicks and Pat Teasdale. Due to the nursing facility’s COVID-19 protocol, Lisa delivered the packages and the Life Enrichment staff at the facility dispersed them to its 74 residents.
