Landscape company delivers ‘Hanging Baskets for Healthcare Heroes’

AVON, Ind. (WISH) — Nurses at IU Health West Hospital in Avon and health care workers around the world celebrated National Nurses Day a lot different this year.

Greg and Lisa Frazee at the Brownsburg Landscape Co. are trying to make sure different is a good thing.

“We brought a little happiness to the nurses and passed out some flowers,” Lisa said. They call it “Hanging Baskets for Healthcare Heroes.”

“It really does go a long way and makes a big difference in the spirits and the morale of the team,” said Kapri Ames, chief nursing officer. “It’s been a lot of hard work that they’ve done lately and a lot of stress and they’ve made a lot of personal sacrifices as well.”

The nurses showered the Frazee couple with thank yous for their kind gesture.

“It’s very heartwarming to see everybody smile,” Lisa said.

Starting their National Nurses Week on the bright side, as they go back to face the daily challenges of the coronavirus pandemic, “It goes a long way to inspire and motivate and keep us moving,” Ames said.

Brownsburg Landscape brought a total 250 baskets to IU Health West Hospital. They also delivered baskets to health care workers in Danville at Hendricks Regional Health Hospital in Danville.
