Banners and a parade of more than 30 vehicles welcomed Regions Hospital staffers to work Wednesday morning.

ST PAUL, Minn. — To honor the front-line medical workers at Regions Hospital, Xcel Energy workers and trucks lined the streets around the hospital Wednesday morning. 

Workers in neon safety vests and cloth masks cheered for late-shift workers getting off and morning shift workers filing into the downtown hospital. Banners were hung from the Xcel Energy trucks as flashing lights glittered in the morning air. 

The energy company also plans to deliver box lunches to workers at the hospital for lunch.
