Smyrna, Tenn., December 30, 2020 – TriStar StoneCrest Medical Center in Smyrna began a new campaign last week called “Keep Your Lights Up for Healthcare and Frontline Heroes.” The initiative is a way to show support for healthcare and all frontline workers who have fought the COVID-19 pandemic for the past nine months by leaving holiday lights up until Jan. 31, 2021. The hospital is asking every person, business and community to follow through with the showcase of solidarity.

The reason behind the campaign is for residents to leave their Christmas lights up as a way for these heroes to see your support and gratitude as they drive to and from their shifts. Reports indicate that many front-line workers are weary from the physical and emotional toll of what they see every day.
