Norwood Hospital thanks police officers

Dear Editor:

January 9 is National Law Enforcement Appreciation Day. Each day, police officers in our community put on a badge and go to work knowing they may face dangerous situations in their quest to keep our residents safe. On average, between 105 and 203 officers die, 50,000 officers are assaulted, and 14,000 officers are injured in the line of duty each year in this nation. Law enforcement officers have chosen a difficult career, one which sometimes only allows them seconds to make life-and-death decisions. In addition, we can’t overlook the sacrifices made by their families so that their loved one can serve and protect others.

On January 9, our nation recognizes National Law Enforcement Appreciation Day. Norwood Hospital would like to take this opportunity to thank our brave men and women in blue for their selfless service to our community. Thank you and be safe.

Kim Bassett
President
Norwood Hospital
