A TIME FOR THANKS

Staff,

As we finish celebrating Thanksgiving, there are many things that we can be thankful for. So in the spirit of Thanksgiving, I wanted to take this opportunity to give thanks to a very special team. Therefore, this month’s IMAGE cover story features our JHH Clinical Managers and JH Imaging Site Managers.

As I reflect back over the past years, our Department has gone through many changes. Our major milestones have been not only in the technology field, but opening of the new clinical buildings, expansion of the Call Center, implementation of Epic, new PACs, and of course the expansion of JH Medical Imaging over the past six years. WOW! Lots of changes. But during all of these changes, one thing has remained constant and that is our incredible “ALL STAR” clinical management team that includes Lori Bender, Lakiesha Brown, Amanda Digby, Noel Foster, Paula Frank, Ginger Hill, Teri McClary, Angela McClellan, Bea Mudge, Corey Rhames, Cheryl Shoats, Michael Thomas, Corina Voicu and Elyce Wolfgang.

They have been our rock and the foundation of our success. The managers have ensured during these many changes that our primary focus ALWAYS remains on the two most important things. First YOU and our patients. Our managers demonstrate to us every day their leadership, kindness, trust, integrity, and most important their willingness to tackle any project or tasks put before them. These are the individuals that fearlessly face you every day delivering the good and the bad news about your operations, patient safety, and customer service. During earthquakes, snowstorms, and IT outages, they jump into the middle of these events to lend support and guidance for us.

After being in my position for over ten years, I continue to be amazed, often in awe, and frankly feel blessed to work side-by-side with these managers as we navigate through our daily opportunities and challenges. Although difficult to express in words and perhaps sounds too simple but I sincerely want to thank each of the clinical managers that continue to inspire me every day to be the best. Please join me and please take the time to thank your manager for their dedication to JHH Radiology and JH Medical Imaging.

Again, truly many thanks to our “ALL STAR” leadership team.
