LOCATION CHANGE!Doug Brant Providence VNA RN Candlelight Vigil

The upcoming candlelight vigil which is scheduled for December 21 at 5:30 p.m. has a new location. It is now in the Grand Ballroom at the Double Tree by Hilton Spokane City Center, due to expected extreme low temperatures.

We will be remembering Doug Brant, VNA RN who was tragically killed on the job while doing a home visit on December 1. The vigil is open to all community members, especially those who want to remember Doug, and give tribute to his years of nursing. Leaders from around the nation, as well as family members, have responded, and are coming in support, and in loving memory of Doug, and to support the nurses of Providence VNA. We are thankful to those who are taking the time, and effort to make this a truly special event.
