During the holiday season, emotional support becomes just as important as clinical care. This year, MDT Home Health Care Agency is participating in USPS Operation Santa, a program that allows volunteers to adopt letters from families in need and fulfill holiday wishes.

Why Emotional Care Matters
Homebound patients and families often experience isolation and added stress during the holidays. Community connection — even small gestures — can strengthen motivation, improve mood, and support overall well-being. These emotional factors directly influence how patients follow care plans and manage chronic conditions.
A Program That Reflects MDT’s Values
Operation Santa x MDT’s mission of caring for the whole person. By supporting selected letters, we extend compassion beyond clinical services and help relieve some of the emotional and financial pressure families may feel this time of year.
How This Benefits Families We Serve
Families who feel supported are more engaged, more communicative, and better able to maintain stable routines. This emotional boost complements the clinical care our team provides in the home.
A Season of Connection
Through this initiative, MDT celebrates community and compassion , essential elements of quality home care. Emotional support, especially during the holidays, is another way we help families feel seen, valued, and connected.
