Happy May Day!!! This month we are excited to recognize Sarann Fiscus as our May Employee of the Month!! Sarann is a receptionist and has been with us since July 2019 – almost 7 years. The receptionist position is extremely important as Sarann is the first person that families and visitors meet. She has an amazing way about herself that makes people comfortable and can put them at ease. Sarann studied and earned her B.S. in Education from East Stroudsburg University which gave her a wonderful career in education. Over the span of her career, Sarann had the opportunity to work across a variety of fields, including hospitality and retail. Sarann even took on the challenge of learning an entirely new field where she taught at a dental school, helping those that wanted to aspire in the dental field. Fun fact about Sarann – she was born on Valentine’s Day! She also loves trying new recipes, grilling year-round with her husband on the deck. Sarann is also an avid reader with a passion for her Irish roots. Sarann has one daughter that lives with her husband in Queens, NY and has always loved sharing a home with her husband of 39 years. When asked what advice she would give to a brand-new employee, Sarann’s answer is simply to be patient, be kind and always keep your sense of humor. Stressful days will come and you will not always have the answers, but remembering to step back and find something to laugh about will make all the difference in the world. Sarann, we are lucky to have you as part of our team and thank you for being amazing!

This month, we congratulate Terri Lamberti as our April Employee of the Month! Terri is an LPN (Licensed Practical Nurse) who is happily coming up on 2 years employed with Marywood Heights. Terri graduated from West Scranton High School and attended CTC where she earned her LPN. Her favorite part of working at Marywood Heights is being a part of the resident’s daily lives – especially listening to their stories. She also views her co-workers as a wonderful group of people from every department who work together as a family. Terri sees her most proud career accomplishment as being able to personally connect with the residents and their families. She sees herself staying with Marywood Heights long term and eventually going down to part time. What is Terri’s fun fact? She loves to decorate the floor for all the holidays with the staff and residents. When she’s not working, Terri enjoys camping, fishing and spending quality time with her children and grandchildren. Terri’s advice for a brand-new employee is simple: remember that this is the resident’s home and treat all as one would treat their own family. Thank you, Terri, for all you do!!!

As we welcome a new month, we are so excited to recognize Ellen Palumbo, a member of our Housekeeping department, as our March employee of the month! Ellen has been a member of the Marywood Heights family for a little over 2 years. Making it through the cold is tough, but Ellen is looking forward to the onset of spring and summer. Ellen is a diehard 49ers fan, and…fun fact! She was born on April Fool’s Day! Ellen has been married for over 40 years, has two wonderful children and a grandson who is getting ready to graduate with honors. She also had 2 dogs that drive her absolutely crazy! Ellen’s favorite part of working for Marywood Heights is being able to see the residents every day, hearing their stories from long ago – recognizing how they were and how that has made them into how they are today. Ellen’s looking forward to her retirement years, seeing her husband get well where she and her husband can take a vacation to someplace warm. She is most proud of how she cleans our resident's rooms. Ellan strives to take care of them no different than if they were her own close friend or family member. What advice would Ellen give a new hire? It seems overwhelming at first, but it gets easier with a good schedule and being able to do what you can do. Thank you, Ellen!

We’re so excited to honor Norma Centeno, Nursing Assistant as our February employee of the month! Norma joined our team in September of 2023 and has been a Nursing Aide for over 20 years. She is fully engaged towards the care for our residents, has an unparalleled work ethic and works hard for long periods of time, often working double shifts. Norma takes immense pride in giving care to the best of her ability. When asked, Norma told us “There is no better feeling than knowing your work brings comfort, safety and human connection to those who need it the most.” One of her biggest achievements was purchasing her first home to raise her family in. What advice would give to new employees? Prioritize safety, ask questions and to take time to learn the resident’s needs and routines. We are more than delighted to celebrate Norma’s work ethic and how it positively motivates the team. Thank you, Norma!
