The Home Care Alliance of Massachusetts gave me one of my most memorable experiences of 2019.
It’s traditional to spend at least a few days each January making lofty, and sometimes unrealistic, resolutions about the great things we plan to accomplish in the coming New Year.
I prefer to look backward.
Pressing the “rewind button” on the past year helps me remember what I’ve accomplished, appreciate more fully what I’ve experienced, and contemplate how I can use the lessons of the old year to do better in the new one.
I’ve stopped 2019’s rewind tape many times to revisit meaningful events and experiences from the past 12 months. But the first 2 stops—both in November—have stayed with me because they focused on an issue I’m passionate about: elevating the role of the home care aide.
