My Thanks to Our Salus Community: Week of November 22, 2023

 

Dear Students, Faculty, Residents, Alumni, Board Members and Friends,

At this time of Thanksgiving, we pause to count our blessings for the freedoms we enjoy in this great country and the many opportunities to achieve great things that our freedoms afford. Traditionally, individuals from all walks of life come together to celebrate this most American holiday with family and friends to recount the joys and blessings of the past year.

With all that’s happening in the world, we have much upon which to reflect, and for which to be thankful: 

Abundant thanks to our students for choosing Salus to advance your professional formation and for your continued partnership with us as we prepare you with the finest professional education available. You’re the reason we’re here. We are extremely thankful for that.
 
Sincere thanks to our talented staff for all you do for our students and our institution, and to our faculty for your commitment to instructional excellence, service, and research. Your collective contributions, often made without fanfare, advance our mission in ways that are significant and enduring. 
 
Deepest thanks to our volunteer Board of Trustees for your tremendous service to our Salus community. Your expertise, commitment and support inspire us to do our best work.

 

As many of our neighbors and friends lend a hand to those in need, we are also reminded of the indelible spirit of compassion and mutual responsibility that has distinguished our country since its earliest days. This spirit is alive and well here at Salus. Everyday throughout our Eye, Ear, and Speech and Language Institutes, in schools and across the many clinical settings we support, Salus people embody the Thanksgiving spirit. My admiration and thanks to our clinicians, staff, and students for the exceptional care you provide our patients across the Philadelphia region.

As we prepare to celebrate Thanksgiving, we also embrace a significant moment in Salus’s history – our upcoming merger with Drexel University. This Thanksgiving let’s express our gratitude not only for the blessings in our lives but also for the exciting future that lies ahead as we join forces with Drexel. Together, we will innovate and enhance our strengths in graduate health sciences education and clinical practice, expanding our impact and continuing our legacy of excellence.

Thank you for making Salus a very special place in which to learn, work and support our community.

Wishing you all a very safe and restful Thanksgiving.

-Mike
