Blue searchlights to shine April 9-15Searchlights support Beaumont staff and community first responders caring for patients during the pandemic
The searchlights are part of the ongoing Beaumont campaign to show gratitude to health care workers and first responders during the pandemic.
Blue searchlights will shine at all hospital campuses for one week: April 9-15.
Searchlights will shine from 8 to 10 p.m.
The Searchlights are part of “Home Beams for Health Care Teams” initiative. Every evening at 8 p.m., families are encouraged to step outside their house to shine a flashlight toward their nearest hospital to show their support for health care heroes across Southeast Michigan. Families are also encouraged to put blue light bulbs in their porch light or tie a blue ribbon around a tree as a sign of support to health care heroes and first responders.
