Congratulations to Shannon Jacobs, Guest Relations, Concierge, and Volunteer Coordinator, for receiving the August 2024 Mission Moment Award at Jefferson Moss-Magee Rehabilitation.
Shannon received a Mission Moment award for going above and beyond by organizing the first-ever Center City Therapy Paralympics for our patients. She created poster boards featuring former Magee patients who were currently competing or had competed in the past. She coordinated with recreational therapy to spend the week holding "Olympic events" in our three gyms, culminating in a rooftop Paralympic meet on our sixth floor, complete with pickleball, ax throwing, and frisbee golf! She also worked with our wheelchair sports department to have specialty sport wheelchairs on display, along with information about how to join our competitive wheelchair sports teams. The hallways were decorated, each gym had an LED torch, and the competing patients all received medals!
Thank you, Shannon, for this work and all you do every day for our patients and staff!
