Welcome to the final day of Shields’ Employee Appreciation Week!

We hope you enjoyed the activities and had a fun filled week! Shields Health Care Group is so unique and programs like these are what keeps our culture alive.  Whether this was your first Employee Appreciation Week or your 30th, we hope its a reminder of just how much you are APPRECIATED!

We have two pretty great announcements today to close our Employee Appreciation Week.

First, we’re revealing the location of Shields’ Summer Outing….The Shields family is inviting you and your family to a New England Revolution game this summer at Gillette Stadium. More details will come out as we select the game and we’ll share that information, along with R.S.V.P. forms, in May.

Second, we’re happy to announce that we got a very strong response to our Employee Survey – thank you! Though we didn’t quite reach the 50%, we know that you’ll continue to take the survey so are pulling our raffle winner in good faith.

Congratulations to Jill Hall in Portsmouth! You’ve won an overnight stay and dinner at the all new MGM Grand in Springfield!
