A huge thank you to our incredible YANA lead volunteer, Patricia, for going above and beyond for one of our community members!

One of our residents joined the You Are Not Alone (YANA) program last year, and Patricia has been her steadfast point of contact ever since. When the resident fell outside their home last Thursday - injuring their head and elbow - they immediately called Patricia. Without hesitation, she contacted our emergency line, our dispatch team dispatched an ambulance right away, Patricia arrived at the home within minutes, stayed by the resident’s side, and ensured they were admitted to HonorHealth Scottsdale Osborn.

The very next day, Patricia returned to clean up the scene at the home and personally picked up the resident upon discharge to bring them safely back.

Stories like this remind us why YANA exists—to support Paradise Valley residents so they can live independently with confidence and care. Patricia's quick thinking, compassion, and dedication truly made a difference for this resident and her family.

Thank you, Patricia—you're a true community saint and a shining example of the impact our volunteers make every day! 💙🙏
