COMMUNITY BRIEFS

THE HEARTS THAT HEAL

Nurses and caregivers honored for their work and dedication
During National Nurses Week,
the hospitals of Community
Healthcare System celebrated
the nurses and caregivers who make a
difference in the lives of our patients
every day.
At Community Hospital, Lynda
Burgeson, registered nurse on the
3 South unit, received the 2016 Nursing
Excellence Award. Jayson Jenkins, patient
care technician in Radiation Oncology,
received the Caregiver Excellence Award.
"Lynda serves as a charge nurse and
preceptor, and she is a strong team leader.
She recognizes the diverse spiritual, cultural and social needs of her patients,"
says Samantha Kranz, nurse manager.
Jenkins has worked at the hospital for
19 years and is often seen transporting
patients in Radiation Oncology.
"Jayson is a valuable team player who
smiles all the time and finds a way to lift
everyone's spirits even though cancer

treatment is a serious matter," Radiation
Oncology and Medical Physics Director
Jacqueline Katz says.
St. Mary Medical Center's Pillar
Awards recognize nurses who go above
and beyond for their patients in the
categories of service, quality, people,
finance and growth. The 2016 winners
were: Steve Lopez (service), Josette
Crostreet (quality), Randall Quirk
(people), Sheena Tinner (finance) and
Jennifer Mulvihill (growth).
St. Mary Medical Center's 2016
Superstar Award, for excellence in
all those categories, goes to Jodie
Blackman. Co-workers say that
Blackman, a six-year veteran nurse, is
an asset to the unit, the hospital and
the profession of nursing.
St. Catherine Hospital's choices for
the Excellence in Nursing Award were
Anne Fullilove, Intermediate Care unit,
