Alabama Gov. Kay Ivey joined the Alabama Hospital Association in offering thanks and praise to health care workers at the start of National Hospital Week.

Ivey noted the vital role everyone plays at a hospital to keep it functioning, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic.

“You often work long hours and take on tasks that may not even fall under your title, but you do so with empathy and great resolve,” Ivey said. “During this health crisis, you’ve proven time and time again that you care about your patients’ health and wellness, even at the cost of your own.”
