Employee of the Month - January 2012Category: Employee of the Month | Permalink Published: Tuesday, January 03, 2012 Congratulations to Ally Thorwarth on being chosen as Hospice of the Valleys Employee of the Month for January 2012. She has embraced her receptionist duties with professionalism, warmth, and enthusiasm and has taken on so much more! We are grateful to her for her willingness to do whatever she can to help HOV succeed. She displays a calm, kind and welcoming presence at the font desk and represents HOV in a very professional light. Her customer service skills are exceptional and she demonstrates HOV's commitment to patients and families by helping all callers feel like they are the most important priority for her and for HOV. She is able to focus, even when there are multiple things happening all at the same time. Whatever she does, she gives her all and her work is consistently excellent. Since she came to us, she has learned QuickBooks and has been able to back up our accounts payable function when staff members are out to ensure work can continue to flow seamlessly. She is always eager for more work and her passion for continuing to learn and grow is inspirational. She is a fast learner and is not afraid to ask questions. Ally has very quickly become a highly valuable member of our team and we are grateful for her dedication and diligence. We are hopeful that she will be challenged and find fulfillment here at HOV and we look forward to the future with great anticipation.

Employee of the Month - December 2011Category: Employee of the Month | Permalink Published: Tuesday, December 06, 2011 Congratulations to Sandra Garza on being chosen as Hospice of the Valleys Employee of the Month for December, 2011!. She has very quickly become an essential part of our team and now we can't live without her sweet, calming, steady manner and her great organizational and streamlining skills. She completes tasks with ease and grace and brings humor to us every day. She has been enormously effective in organizing and maintaining a bereavement assessment system which enables the social services team to be more effective, efficient and thorough. She has been a great asset to the caregiver support group in the loving way that she supports them, keeps meeting records, and assists with meeting set up. She has become the GO-TO person for the entire clinical team who call often for updates on the social and spiritual needs of patients and families. She consistently pitches right in to help and always has just the right thing to offer. Whatever work she is given, she receives with a smile and she gets it done with resourcefulness and competence. She demonstrates intelligence, creativity and imagination in problem solving. She has an uncanny sense of anticipating what comes next and is constantly finding new ways of lessening the work load of her teammates. She is a strong and joyful team player, a great resource to staff, and is exceptionally generous with her time and care. We are so blessed to have her here with us. She is just what we needed to help take the Bereavement program to the next level. Her excellent work and high standards are a great inspiration to all and we thank her for her dedication and service to HOV. She is a gem!
