Carroll Hospital names October and November SuperStars of the Month
Barbara King, telecommunications attendant, and Jessica Goodwin, EKG technician, have been chosen as Carroll Hospital's October and November SuperStars of the Month, respectively.
A hospital staff member for 13 years, King was recognized for her overwhelming compassion and exceptional customer service while talking on the phone to a patient's loved one.
"Barbara is an outstanding associate whose compassion truly comes from the heart," said Yolanda Jones-Spears, director of telecommunications at LifeBridge Health.
A hospital staff member since 2010, Goodwin also was recognized for her compassion when she comforted and supported a fellow co-worker who was grieving the loss of a loved one by helping to plan a memorial walk in the loved one's honor.
"Jessica's compassion made a lasting impact on both the co-worker who lost his loved one and to everyone who participated in this walk," said Laura Hammer, electrocardiology manager at Carroll Hospital.
Each month, Carroll Hospital recognizes the extraordinary achievements of members of the Carroll Hospital staff with a program called Associate WOW Service Awards. From those who are nominated to receive Associate WOW Service Awards each month, one SuperStar of the Month is chosen. And, from a year's worth of winners, one SuperStar of the Year is selected.
Community members and hospital employees are encouraged to nominate a hospital staff member who has demonstrated a special dedication and devotion to his/her job in a variety of ways.
