Well deserved recognition for Ms. Linda!
✨Volunteer Spotlight ✨
Linda Harton has been a steady and dependable presence at St. Luke’s in Spartanburg, South Carolina for more than three decades. She began by supporting the chart room, maintaining patient records, organizing files, and helping staff behind the scenes.
About three years ago, she noticed more patients were feeling overwhelmed, isolated, and anxious. Instead of waiting for more resources to arrive, Linda stepped forward. Drawing on her experience as a former high school counselor, she began volunteering as a behavioral health counselor and now meets with patients several times a week, listening, encouraging, and sharing practical tools to help them cope.
Linda still supports administrative and records work, stays flexible when needs come up, and is often the first to say yes when an emergent patient needs to be seen. Her presence has shaped the clinic for decades, and we are deeply grateful for the empathy, warmth, and encouragement she brings to patients, staff, and fellow volunteers every week. 💙
