We talk about safety, the choices she has,
She worries she’s simply a "pain."
Her vitals are steady, but before I go,
I remind her—please use that cane.
Next is Tom, a proud veteran,
Embarrassed, but trying his best.
His aide is kind, treating him with respect,
And he’s glad that he answered our test.
Kenny is feeble, his mind drifts away,
Not sure who we are or why.
But a smile sparks a flicker of light,
And we leave with a warm goodbye.
Henry is waiting, on hospice care,
His journey is nearing its end.
An honor to be there, to hold his wife's hand,
Providing support as they mend.
Each day we make a difference,
In ways both big and small.
Helping our clients stay safe at home.
That’s the greatest gift of all.
