MJHS Health Home and Marketing/Communications Teams Come Together for Treats
It was bitterSWEET (pun intended), as members of the MJHS Health Home and Marketing/Communications teams came together over treats to say farewell after years of working directly beside each other 🍪🧁
While enjoying cupcakes, fruit and those iconic New York black and white cookies, the group reminisced about all the times they collaborated on fun and educational social media content. Those stories led to many laughs, which you could hear from down the hall — and perhaps even down the street at the new corporate headquarters at #55WaterStreet.
Thanks to Audrey (front center), assistant vice president of communications, and Elizabeth (front right), health home assistant director, for helping organize this get together!
