Program Mission Statement: (self-reported)
Unsung Heroes is a support and self-renewal training program for nursing home, hospice and home health care workers. Unsung Heroes provides a wide range of faith-based spiritual, stress, and coping techniques for rural healthcare workers including often minimum wage employees like hospice and healthcare aids, housekeeping staff, cooks and custodians.
Self-awareness and resiliency training by CTI staff, clergy, social workers and physicians to give medical care and support staff ways to deal with the stressful environment of overburdened rural healthcare, and coping with their own minimum-wage personal budgets and stress-related nutrition concerns. Rural health workers don’t receive this training elsewhere.
