Happy Carnival Day!

Wow! Everyone had a blast last Saturday as our current and former residents enjoyed some family fun playing with the bouncy house, farm animals, carnival games, and face painter! It was a space for families and children to get to interact with like a typical family. Here at CHONC, we hope to continue to provide these opportunities in addition with our quality medical care to the medically fragile population.

A special thank you to all who helped make this carnival happen, we couldn't have done it without everyone!
