In celebration of National Hospital Week, Musicians On Call (MOC) recently hosted its second annual “Concert For Caregivers” at Analog at Hutton Hotel in Nashville to thank caregivers and hospital workers for their continued sacrifices.
Lauren Alaina, Charles Esten and Matthew Ramsey of Old Dominion performed some of their biggest hits for Tennessee hospital staff during the intimate show. A recording of the concert is being distributed to 5,000 hospitals and healthcare systems across the country during National Hospital Week thanks to the American Hospital Association (AHA), MOC’s Healthcare Community Partner.
“This evening is one of those special moments where we can say thank you to the caregivers who do such critical work taking care of their patients all year long. Being able to bring them an unforgettable experience like ‘Concert For Caregivers’ is MOC’s own, unique way to show our appreciation for all they do,” said Pete Griffin, MOC President & CEO. “This wouldn’t have been possible without Charles Esten, who organized this writers’ round for the second year in a row; Analog at Hutton Hotel for the generous donation of their beautiful space; and our partners at the American Hospital Association for giving us the chance to share this night of music with hospital staff nationwide.”
“Our nation’s healthcare caregivers are the backbone of hospitals and the heart of healthcare, and they deserve our deep thanks and gratitude each and every day,” stated Rick Pollack, AHA President & CEO. “The AHA is proud to once again partner with Musicians On Call during National Hospital Week to share the gift of music as we honor the entire healthcare team for all they do to advance health in our communities.”
For 25 years, MOC has used music to promote and complement the healing process through bedside, virtual and digital streaming programs across all 50 states. The nonprofit’s volunteers have performed for more than a million individuals in healthcare facilities nationwide.
