With everything going on during the COVID-19 crisis, we wanted to share some of the stories about what Cook people are doing during this difficult time. All around the Cook world, we are #InThisTogether, and we would love to hear stories about how you and your coworkers are stepping up to make a difference. If you have a story to share, please email us at BlogEditor@CookMedical.com.

“Lean on Me” cover – A Cook employee creation

My name is Jason Brown, and I manage a small video team for the Corporate Marketing and Communications function.

A few months ago, while so many things were going on all around the world, I felt like I should do something to try and connect our teams together. Inspired by a music video that a friend had sent me, I thought we could do something similar. After reaching out to the divisions, functions, and operational units, we received awesome submissions and responses. It took me a bit to get it all pieced together, but finally we had our very own Cook family music video. I hope it brings you all a little bit of positivity and happiness too.

Thank you

Special thanks to everyone that helped make this video possible!

    1. Great video. A wonderful reminder that really everything is about people. People we can help, people we work with. I believe Bill Cook said; ” Take care of the company and it will take care of you.” People are what make up our company.
