Cumberland Medical Center is pleased to announce that Kim Brown has been chosen as CMC’s CARE Ambassador for August 2012.  Kim has been an employee at Cumberland Medical Center since March, 1992.  She is a dietician in the Food Services Department.

Cumberland Medical Center is proud of each member of its staff and expects a high standard of performance at all times.  The CARE Ambassador of the Month program is designed to spotlight the “exceptional” employee- one who has surpassed the normal standard of excellence by a demonstration of skills or an act above and beyond expectations.

Employees may be nominated by co-workers, patients, visitors, or physicians.  Each nomination is carefully evaluated by a committee of hospital employees, and one employee is chosen each month if worthy of the award.  Honorable mention certificates are also awarded to those who are nominated.  Those nominated in August were:

• Rhoda Wright-Emergency Department

• Angela Cherry-Emergency Department

• Ivan Moore-Emergency Department

• Charles Olsen-Emergency Department

• Jim Cornwell-Clinical Management

• Robin Abram-Medical Staff Services

• Charlotte Cramm-Wellness Complex

• Tim Hamby-3A

CARE represents the following principles:  COMPASSION, ACCOUNTABILITY, RESPECT, and EXCELLENCE.

Congratulations to Kim Brown, on her selection as the CARE Ambassador of the Month for August, 2012.
