\"\"Jamestown\u00a0 (JRMC) \u00a0<\/strong>\u2014 Jamestown Regional Medical Center (JRMC) recently announced K.C. Robison and Karen Tahran as its most recent Legend Award recipients.<\/p>\n

The Legend Award is the most prestigious distinction for a JRMC employee. The Legend Award recognizes employees who exceed expectations and make THE difference in the lives of those they serve.<\/p>\n

JRMC Admissions Clerk, Lori Vondal, nominated Robison, a registered nurse in the JRMC Cancer Center, because of his willingness to be THE difference by providing above and beyond quality care with patients by spending more time with them during a difficult time.<\/p>\n

Vondal says, \u201cK.C. Robison spent nearly 35 minutes with a patient that presented to the Cancer Center with a despiteful diagnosis. We all know this diagnosis affects a patient and their loved ones. \u2018Cancer\u2019 is always a horrible word to hear. Robison assured the patient that we are here to help him through this and that he should not stop living because of his diagnosis and just know his limits.\u201d<\/p>\n

JRMC Dr. W. Thomas Coombe, Ear, Nose & Throat specialist, nominated Tahran, an ENT nurse, because of her willingness to be THE difference by providing above and beyond quality care for patients with enthusiasm.<\/p>\n

Dr. Coombe says, \u201cKaren arrived each morning with cheerful enthusiasm and worked tirelessly to establish and hone the clinic processes, policies and procedures.\u00a0 Quickly, the clinic was functioning smoothly but, Karen did not stop there. She continued to work on improvements and work flows, evident in the efficient smooth operation of the JRMC ENT clinic today. Over the past four years I never observed anything other than complete commitment from Karen. She is the best ENT nurse I have ever worked with in my long career.\u201d<\/p>\n

JRMC\u2019s 350 employees cast anonymous votes to select each Legend Award winner.<\/p>\n

The purpose of the Legend Award is to inspire, motivate and capture the moments that define JRMC. The goal is to help employees and volunteers connect to the sense of purpose that brought them to the organization. This award is for employees who\u2019ve made extreme efforts to benefit their patients and colleagues.<\/p>\n

JRMC President & CEO, Mike Delfs, says, \u201cThe nominations inspire staff members to continually be the best, exceed expectations and make THE difference in the lives of those we serve.\u201d<\/p>\n

Once nominated, both JRMC administration and employees vote on their favorite nominees and their stories.<\/p>\n

Patricia Kline, Specialty Clinic Manager, says,\u00a0 \u201cK.C. and Karen are difference makers. They are reliable and experienced. We are grateful to have them part of our legendary team.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Legend Award first began in 2012. Since then, more than 35 individuals have been named Legends and more than 110 employees were nominated.<\/p>\n
