She said one note that thanked staff members for giving 100 percent every day and for keeping residents safe was so heartwarming that Hebrew SeniorLife posted it on its Facebook page. And that triggered more thanks and well wishes. One woman who has lived at Jack Satter House for 12 years posted a thank you to the staff for stepping in and taking care of residents and their everyday needs. “I applaud all your efforts in keeping us safe and I welcome your daily wellness calls and updates,” she wrote. “We are a community, we are a family and we are all in this together.” Vanessa and Mike Biasella used this extra time to single-handedly clean up Rumney Marsh and Northern Strand Community Trail in North Revere. (Photo Courtesy of Vanessa Biasella) Lowe said any residents looking for opportunities to reach out and support residents at Jack Satter House can find several suggestions on the Hebrew SeniorLife website, in the About Us section, which includes COVID-19 guidance. A COVID-19 response fund has been set up to raise money for personal protective equipment, additional staff, food deliveries and technology to help residents cope with the social isolation. To help seniors through the quarantine, children are invited to send cards, letters and drawings to Lynda Bussgang, 5000 Great Meadow Road, Dedham, MA 02026. All mail will be distributed to residents. Any encouraging notes to bolster staff can also be sent to Bussgang. In an update on the COVID-19 cases released by Hebrew SeniorLife this week, Woolf stressed the strengths of the Jack Satter House community and the strong connection between residents and the city of Revere. “Jack Satter House has been a beloved part of the Revere community for years, and patients, residents, and staff are like family there, just as they are throughout our entire Hebrew SeniorLife community,” said Woolf. “All of our hearts ache for the members of our community facing COVID-19 and we pray for community members who have been diagnosed with COVID-19.”
