Maricelis Rosa is May Star of the Month!

Star if the MonthMaricelis Rosa has been an SLCH employee since 2007 in the Food and Nutrition department at the Cornwall campus. She is being recognized for her caring manner and going above and beyond her job duties.

“When asked what sandwiches our patients liked the best, Maricelis made sure we had those specific food items right away,” said an employee at the infusion center. Maricelis’ compassion for the SLCH patients and staff is appreciated and highly recognized.

Maricelis always makes sure patients in the infusion center have food items and never run out. She surpasses her job requirements, is constantly offering something new and has her cell phone available if someone needs something. She truly cares about the patients.

Congratulations Maricelis!
