Personal Experience

Bridgett Flores joined the Care Staffing Professionals team to provide admin support to the company’s corporate social responsibility partnership with the D’Andre D. Lampkin Foundation. Bridgett identifies herself as an artistic-minded person that loves art and nature. She attended Palomares Academy of Health Science in high school, an academy whose curriculum is centered around professions in the medical field. During her tenure at Palomares, she gained basic medical training and certifications in HIPPA, OSHA, and CPR.

Bridgett later took on an internship at the Pomona Valley hospital where she had the opportunity to interact and care for the patients. The relationships she developed with the patients motivated her to return every day with the goal of caring for them until they were healthy and commit her life to public service. Brigett finds the most joy in helping people and inspiring others in a way where they too are motivated to help someone else in need. Upon hearing about the D’ Andre D. Lampkin Foundation she knew taking on her position was a not only great opportunity for her to help people in need but a great way to help her community.

When the COVID-19 pandemic became a global concern, Bridgett came to the realization there was an opportunity to become a part of the solution. Bridgett spearheaded efforts to provide nutrition to local residents through the Foundation’s COVID-19 food pantry, partner with Care Staffing Professionals healthcare staff to provide free COVID-19 testing, and work directly with nursing professionals and the community to host Blood Drives, Toy Drives, and activities centered around disaster relief.

Remembering 9.11

Today we honor the nearly 3,000 people who lost their lives 17 years ago. The series of attacks against Americans on September 11th were recorded in history as the deadliest attacks in U.S. history.

This week you will likely overhear or engage in conversations about where you were when the planes struck targets in New York City and Washington, D.C.. I often hear people talk about the death and destruction that triggered an enormous effort to combat terrorism. I also remember watching Live coverage from California and the brave men and women rushing toward the danger as it unfolded. Some 400 police officers and firefighters were killed and today thousands of first-responders continue to suffer from the affects of the toxic substances created by the collapsed buildings in Ground Zero.

One of my most profound memories of September 11, 2001 was witnessing the countless number of Americans who responded to assist with the recovery efforts. The spirit of compassion and service could be felt in every part of our country and thanks to organizers at the Corporation for National & Community Service, September 11th has been transformed from a day of mourning to a day of giving back, community engagement, and service.

Please join me in honoring the victims and first-responders of September 11th by participating in this year’s National Day of Service and Remembrance. We enjoy the fruits of their ultimate sacrifice and owe their families a heartfelt thanks and our condolences everyday.

Let's Pause for Friends and Loved Ones

In light of recent high-profile suicide incidents, the discussion around mental health and the well-being of friends and family will inevitable become a topic of concern in your social and traditional media outlets. The Care Staffing Professionals team would like to encourage our visitors, clients, and professionals to be mindful of your friends and family’s well-being.

Health officials recommend that everyone familiarize themselves with the warning signs of suicide, which may include:

A person thinking about or threatening suicide or seeking a way to kill themself
Increased substance abuse
Feelings of purposelessness, anxiety, being trapped, or hopeless
Social isolation and withdrawing from people and activities
Expressing unusual anger, recklessness, or mood changes

Don’t assume a persons current or prior successes or ability to overcome past obstacles means they will make it through today’s challenges. Be an active listener, express your willingness to provide and seek help, and follow up. We can all prevent suicide.

If you or someone you know is considering suicide, contact the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline at 800-273-TALK (8255). This is a number you can call 24-7, 365 days a year. You can also access a “Lifeline Chat” through the group’s website, suicidepreventionlifeline.org.

Take care of yourself and each other,

D’Andre Lampkin
Chief Executive Officer
