Madison County Hospital employees were recently recognized at the annual Employee Recognition Dinner held at the Brennan Loft in downtown London. The evening celebrated service milestones, 2009 “Employee of the Month” recipients, and awards for exceptional service.

“Employee of the Month” recipients were: Terry Black, Tonya Crager, Cindy Gross, Beth Millikin, Stacey Peters, Darren Renz, Jill Rowe, Alicia Sheffield, Tiffany Staley, and Sue Sullivan. The individuals were chosen for demonstrating leadership skills, teamwork, initiative, and a commitment to quality. 

The highlight of the evening was naming the “2009 Employee of the Year,” which is selected from among the “Employee of the Month” recipients. This year, the honor went to Stacey Peters, a registered nurse who works in Ambulatory Care. Stacey’s award nomination form read, “Stacey is a true professional, always at work on time, managing a full-time schedule and a family. Our patients truly like her and appreciate the excellent care she gives.”
