Medical professionals have been at the frontlines of the coronavirus pandemic from the start and singer Lizzo is doing her best to show hospital workers appreciation for all the tedious hours they put in to keep the rest of us afloat.

“Thank you @Lizzo for sending lunches to the UW Medical Center – Montlake Emergency Department today!” read the shoutout the singer got Monday from UW Medical Center located in Seattle, Washington after they received lunch. “Your support of our frontline healthcare workers means a lot.”

The location was just one of several hospitals that got a special delivery from the body positive entertainer this week.

A set of lunches were also sent to the ER staff at Henry Ford Hospital located in her hometown of Detroit, Mich. The hospital’s official Twitter page even posted a video of Lizzo personally thanking all of the staff for their sacrifice.

“SURPRISE! @lizzo treated our ER staff at #HenryFordHospital to lunch today and shared a message of thanks to our #HealthcareHeroes on the front lines. #Lizzo, from the bottom of our hearts, thank you so much for making our day brighter with your generosity,” read the caption.
