A Letter From Our CEO
Light at the End of
a Challenging Year
Erick Larson LAST FEBRUARY, COVID-19 was something happening overseas. A year later,
everyone in our community and our state has felt the impact of the disease, even
if they have not gotten sick or lost a loved one.
Since March 2020, I’ve witnessed every single Huron Regional Medical
Center employee step up again and again and again. I know it hasn’t been easy,
but our team has continued to show up, day after day, and that speaks volumes
about this work being much more than a job. It truly is a calling – a calling to
serve others, even at the risk of your own life.
During this past year, I have been so thankful to be part of HRMC, as our staff
has shown the true heart they have for our patients. But I’m also grateful for the
support of our community and how quickly our city and county officials joined
forces with us to set up a call center and testing center – which then became a
model for others to follow. When the need arises, this community never fails to
respond and then remain resilient, and I’m so happy to live here.
But even as the number of vaccinations increases daily, we cannot take our eye
off the ball in the months to come. Everyone in the community must continue to
practice the basic safety measures that have gotten us this far. Wash your hands,
wear a mask, social distance and stay home when you’re sick.
There is hope on the horizon, and we’re all cautiously optimistic. HRMC
remains committed to compassionate care throughout these challenging times.
When I say take care of yourselves and take care of others, I truly mean it. We are
in this together – and we’re not done yet!
