FLAGLER, LAKE AND VOLUSIA COUNTIES, Fla., May 11, 2020 – In celebration of National Nurses Week and amid the COVID-19 pandemic, local carwash company SuperWash Express donated 3,200 free car washes to the nurses at AdventHealth facilities in Flagler, Lake and Volusia counties.
“We are so grateful for our nurses – not only for what they are doing right now during this uncertain time, but truly what they do all year to care for our community,” said Paul Bradley, president of SuperWash Express. “We are happy to provide them a free carwash and hope they know how much they are appreciated.”
Celebrated from May 6-12, National Nurses Week recognizes the critical role nurses play in providing high-quality care.
“The World Health Organization designated 2020 as the Year of the Nurse, and given our current situation, it turned out to be a timely decision. We at AdventHealth truly appreciate our team of amazing nurses who are dedicated to serving our patients with clinical excellence and uncommon compassion,” said David Ottati, CEO of AdventHealth operations in Flagler, Lake and Volusia counties. “SuperWash Express is such a wonderful community partner and we truly appreciate this generous gift for our nurses.”
