Honoring Your Dedication this Labor Day

By David Lubarsky

Whether you’re enjoying well-deserved time off this Labor Day weekend or working on behalf of our patients and community, I want to thank all of our UC Davis Health employees and teams for their hard work and the uplifting care they deliver so professionally every day on the job.

On this 129th celebration of Labor Day, our leadership team recognizes the extraordinary contributions of our workers and those everywhere in our continuing journey toward a more equitable and healthy society. Every day, patients walk through our doors to discover a UC Davis Health team of 17,000-plus employees who stand ready to care for them in all aspects, no matter their circumstances or background. On top of our commitment to diversity, equity and inclusion, we are laser-focused on advancing human health throughout Northern California while also training future leaders in medicine and nursing.

Looking ahead at UC Davis Health, we envision a future that’s greater than our present and that delivers tomorrow’s health care today. Innovation and a patient-centric approach will make this possible. As you can see walking around our Sacramento campus, we are physically, technologically and digitally building a next-level health care organization that our patients will need, and expect, for generations to come. And, each one of you is an intrinsic part of this future.

Finally, Labor Day symbolizes the end of the summer – last minute BBQs, pool parties, and back-to-school preparations – and emerging opportunities that Fall positively brings to our workplace and households. So much depends on the valuable work you do here at UC Davis Health – I am proud of everyone and all their contributions in our workplace and community. Thank you!
