Jamestown (JRMC) <\/strong> January 14, 2023\u2014 A legend is not built in a day. It takes years of consistent commitment to performing with selfless purpose. A legend commits every day\u2014without concern for recognition\u2014to being irreplaceable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jamestown Regional Medical Center (JRMC) recognized its legendary employees at The Golden Gala recognition event on Friday, Jan. 6. This is JRMC\u2019s first offsite appreciation event for employees since the onset of the pandemic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cJRMC 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,\u201d Delfs said. \u201cThey are beyond deserving.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

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.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe event is a little different this year,\u201d said JRMC President & CEO Mike Delfs. \u201cWe 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.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To do that, JRMC recognized 2022 leaf winners. Difference Leaves are peer-to-peer recognition. The leaves acknowledge employees who demonstrate JRMC\u2019s mission or excel at JRMC\u2019s standards of behavior.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

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.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

JRMC also recognized its Legend Award recipients. 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.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

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.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe also recognize this year\u2019s service award winners,\u201d Delfs said. \u201cThese 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.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
