From the CEO We’ve all heard the quote, “The only thing constant is change.” This year, we’ve been faced with no option but to swiftly change the usual ways in which we interact with and care for one another. At BTV, our residents and staff have risen to the challenge. Our immediate priority has been to protect our most vulnerable populations in our highest levels of care, but as headlines and guidelines changed with the spread of Covid-19, our campus as a whole has adapted. I’m proud of the resiliency of our residents, and also thankful for the kindness of strangers. In this issue of Butterfield LIFE, we’ll introduce you to three siblings who warmed hearts at BTV by sending dozens of handmade cards to residents at the Health Care Center. We’ll also update you on how the BTV Pen Pal Program is moving forward remotely so students and residents don’t lose touch during uncertain times. As the world around us trends more and more online, our residents can stay in the know through a number of digital channels, including our Facebook page and YouTube channel. BTV’s Tech Help is just one of the programs helping residents master digital technology. Over the next few months, I am hopeful that BTV can soon return to its vibrant and busy nature. Despite this moment in history, rest assured the state of the Village is strong.
