"On behalf of our family, we would like everyone at the Loretto Cunningham building to know how much you are appreciated. Over the past six years, you have been part of our extended family, taking special care of our mother until her passing. It was not only her medical and comfort care, but also the compassion and love you were there to give her in our absence."

I really enjoy talking and helping the participants. I try to always go above and beyond what ever they may need, even if it’s not in my job description. PACE CNY is about the quality of life so I always try to put a smile on their face. In my three years at PACE CNY, I have made everlasting relationships with so many of the participants that I will cherish and remember for a lifetime.

I always wanted to pursue a career in culinary arts in some form and working with elders over the years has been a great experience. They have taught me a lot.  Loretto gave me a chance to grow and fulfill my goals and dreams.

"I was in terrible pain and could not find a dentist that would accept Medicaid. If they did accept it, the waiting list was months long. A friend told me about McAuliffe Health Center and I was able to get an emergency appointment within two weeks. Their dentist was very gentle, too."
