The Riverside Help Fund provides assistance to team members who experience a significant disruption to their household finances. Sometimes this disruption is a house fire, a flood, or the death of a loved one, all of which can contribute to unexpected and significant expenses. In 2020, COVID-19 created financial hardship for many team members due to the loss of employment of someone in their household or to unanticipated childcare expenses when schools shut down.
Recognizing that so many team members were facing unforeseen hardships, Riverside colleagues donated to the Help Fund with record-breaking generosity, as did members of the communities Riverside serves.
In 2020, 29 team members found financial relief for housing after a house fire, utilities, funeral expenses and transportation needs. Many of these needs were made more pressing than usual by the simultaneous hardships posed by COVID-19.
In a time of critical need, the Riverside family and the communities it serves have stepped up to make sure that local health care heroes were able to focus on caring for patients despite personal pressures due to the pandemic. That is the Riverside Care Difference put into action.
