Tina Gordon is the driver for the Care-A-Van, a transportation
service offered by ALMH to take patients to their doctor's
appointments, nursing homes, hospitals and private residences.
Gordon is a certified nurse's aide who has worked with the
Care-A-Van and medical records department for over nine years. She
often spends her work days traveling around central Illinois, but
it's her dedication to serving the needs of the rest of the
department when she returns that makes her stand out, says her
nominator.
This co-worker wished for Tina to be recognized as the August
Employee of the Month because of her daily efforts to help out the
rest of the staff of the medical records department.
"She does whatever we need her to do when she isn't driving,"
said the nominator. "It could be pulling charts, delivering charts
around the hospital, scanning documents, filing charts, verifying
records or answering the phone. She always has a positive attitude
and a smile on her face."
Gordon considers people at ALMH "like another family" and calls
herself lucky to work with "a great group of people."
"Because it's a smaller hospital, you get to know the people you
work with," she said.

Gordon would also recommend a job at the hospital because of the way
she feels at the end of the day.
"It is very rewarding helping others," she said.
Abraham Lincoln Memorial Hospital employs more than
290 in a variety of job functions. A different employee is honored
each month for their commitment to creating great patient
experiences, getting great results and making ALMH a great place to
work.
