Durham-Hensley Health & Rehab was asked to nominate employees that continually demonstrate a “Commitment to Caring”. These employees were nominated based upon the criteria of:
Sarah has worked at Durham-Hensley for four years and in healthcare fifteen years. She continually shows a “Commitment to Caring” by helping each person to be comfortable providing them with ice, a blanket and helping them to the restroom - not just administering medications.
She stated that her motivation is just being a Nurse. She enjoys making others feel heard and feel better.
Sarah shared that she likes working at Durham-Hensley because it’s a small Facility and her co-workers are like family.
When asked what her most memorable experience has been, she mentioned that a Resident once told her that they were glad to see her working.
It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas at Durham!
For the past few weeks, the Residents have been busy making ornaments for the Christmas tree in the Therapy Department. They have created candy canes, reindeer, snowflakes and painted wooden ornaments.
After all the ornaments were ready for the tree, the Residents helped decorate the tree as well. These ladies enjoyed their time together and we are glad they help get our tree ready for Santa!!
