Jamestown Regional Medical Center (JRMC) recognized its legendary employees at Golden Gala 2023 on Friday, Jan. 6. This is JRMC’s first offsite appreciation event for employees since the onset of the pandemic.
“JRMC employees have worked tirelessly since the beginning of COVID and even before. I am so grateful for the opportunity to recognize them in person alongside their colleagues and families,” Delfs said. “They are beyond deserving.”
Previously titled the Celebrity Celebration, JRMC renamed the event to celebrate individuals who have achieved milestones as well as individuals who have exceeded expectations in their role.
“The event is a little different this year,” said JRMC President & CEO Mike Delfs. “We renamed it. We reinvented it. And, we re-evaluated its purpose. The Reward & Recognition Committee worked hard to ensure this night served as an opportunity to recognize the Difference Makers among us.”
Legendary care
To do that, JRMC recognized 2022 leaf winners. Difference Leaves are peer-to-peer recognition. The leaves acknowledge employees who demonstrate JRMC’s mission or excel at JRMC’s standards of behavior.
Leaf winners this year include: Brianna Mayhair, Plant Operations; Tabitha Kleingartner, Pharmacy; Allison Windish, Radiology; Jewel Wohlart, Nutrition Services; Heather Sobolik, Radiology; Marly Schnabel, Marketing; Kristin Briss, Nutrition; McKenna Barnick, Nutrition.
JRMC also recognized its Legend Award recipients at Golden Gala 2023. A “Legend” is the highest honor presented to a JRMC employee. JRMC Legends are real life examples for others to follow. Every day, acts of heroism take place in healthcare. These legends commit to going above and beyond to benefit the hospital and their community.
This year, those recipients include: Kristin Satrom, Patient Care Unit; Janean Schmidt, Linen Services; Krista Ames, Patient Financial Services; Katie Barta, Courtney Cook, Maggy Russek and Brianna Six, Patient Care Unit and Mitch Gahner, Information Technology.
“We also recognize this year’s service award winners,” Delfs said. “These individuals have dedicated anywhere from five years to 35 years to serving JRMC and their community. We are grateful for them and for their dedication.”
