Employee of the Month – Wendy Howard – November 2023

Congratulations, Wendy Howard, for being our November Employee of the Month! She has had a couple of nominations, but the following best sums it up: “Let me tell you about Ms. Wendy. She is the best! She runs the show at Memorial Pediatrics. She treats her patients holistically- physically, emotionally, and mentally. She nourishes their emotional health by giving positive encouragement and instilling confidence that they can meet their health goals. She calls outside of appointments to check on the children to ensure everything is okay. She does this for my child, and I have heard from others that she does the same for them. Wendy operates with competence and has a matter-of-fact demeanor. Wendy deserves recognition for the asset she is to the organization.”
Thank you, Wendy, for taking such great care of our patients and community! We appreciate you!

Employee of the Month – Courtny Williams – October 2023

Congratulations to Courtny Williams, our October Employee of the Month! Her co-worker had this to say about her: “Courtny has been a very dedicated, hardworking, and considerate employee of Memorial Eye Care for over 4 years. Courtny is an amazing planner, time manager, and versatile employee. She is a vital part of making sure our office runs smoothly. She is a very thorough and ambitious work-up technician. She makes extra effort to learn and be a well-rounded certified Tech. When she is the desk tech, she does a lot of extra things to keep Dr. Martin and the work-up techs moving through the day. She also heads up and works on referrals coming in and going out of the office. She is excellent at looking ahead, communicating, and reminding us all of upcoming events and scheduling issues. When someone is out of reception, she has no problem filling in to work check in or check out. She is a great comfort to me having her as a co-worker. It has really brightened my work and personal life having her here.”
Thank you Courtny, for all you do to serve your teammates and patients every day! We are proud to have you as part of the MHM family!

Daisy Award Winner – Jackie Scruggs – 3rd Qtr 2023

We are excited to announce our 3rd Qtr Daisy Award Winner- Jackie Scruggs!

Jackie has been with us for around 20 years now and has been a valuable asset to our team, her co-workers, and our patients.

Daisy Award write up – I want to take the time to express much gratitude and appreciation to a nurse at your facility that recently took care of my husband. It was very nice to see a familiar face like hers that has taken her job very seriously and continued to serve this community for so many years. My husband was in the hospital for 4 days and nights, with Jackie being his nurse for 2 shifts. When I asked him who would he say was the best nurse or one he appreciated the most, he said Jackie. She expressed all of the values the hospital stands for while being professional and having an awesome bedside manner. She was sure to ask him to state his name and date of birth prior to every medication administration. When she offered to do things for him, she followed through and we did not have to call her again. She worked well with her peers and they appeared to respect her as well. She did things in a timely manner, being sure to make rounds soon after her shift started to let us know she would be his nurse. She was gentle with her care and made my husband and family feel more comfortable during a stressful situation.

Dr. Charles Brown speaks to Rotary on Breast Cancer Awareness

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month! We will be doing posts throughout the month on breast health. We kicked the month off with our own Dr. Brown speaking to Bainbridge Rotary. He addressed the most common risk factors in women, ways to help prevent breast cancer, signs to watch for, and emphasized early detection is key! Make sure to sign up for your yearly Mammogram if you are a woman over 40! Insurance will usually cover this cost. Our team of OB/GYN’s, radiologist, pathologist, and surgeons stand ready to serve our residents and their families here at Memorial Hospital and Manor!
