Adams is Abraham Lincoln Memorial Hospital
Colleague of the Month for February

[March 26, 2021]  Kari Adams, patient care technician, Acute Care, is the Abraham Lincoln Memorial Hospital Colleague of the Month for February. Adams embodies Memorial Health System values of integrity and compassion in her patient care.

“Some days, caring for my patients means sitting quietly with them so they are not alone and scared,” said Adams. “Other days, it’s talking with them. Each day, my job is to keep them safe and get them healthy enough to return home to their loved ones.”

Adams has worked at Abraham Lincoln Memorial Hospital in her current role for two and a half years.

“Kari is kind and compassionate, and has an amazing work ethic and attitude,” said Lindsey Goodwin, RN, one of Adams’ colleagues. “Kari’s patients often remember her and share with me stories of the excellent care Kari provided to them. I feel fortunate to work with such an amazing person.”

Adams, a certified nursing assistant (CNA), is enrolled in school to obtain her bachelor’s degree in nursing. She lives in Lincoln with her husband and has two teenage children.

“I’m proud to work at Abraham Lincoln Memorial Hospital because of the great care we give our patients,” Adams said. “My colleagues here have become like family, and that makes the work easier.”
