81-year-old nursing assistant honored for perfect attendance record amid the COVID-19 pandemic
MOUNT AIRY, N.C. —
In spite of the dangers posed by COVID-19, 81-year-old certified nursing assistant Tatiana Yopp didn't miss a single shift in 2020. She's better known as "Grandma" at the health and rehabilitation center where she works in Mount Airy, North Carolina.
On top of her 10-hour shifts, Tatiana even volunteered on weekends too. She credits staying busy and working every day for keeping her going. "I have to keep going because if I sit down and close my eyes to what the world needs, and if I cannot offer that care and love for them, I would be nothing," she said.
Tatiana was recognized by the staff at the center for her perfect attendance record. She was surprised with a plaque honoring all her hard work.
