GOLD SPONSOR SPOTLIGHT

Quality Service Award recipient announced at Jefferson Medical Center

Julie Wootton, R.N., float pool, was recently named WVU Medicine Jefferson Medical
Center’s Quality Service Award winner for the fourth quarter 2018.
Wootton was selected because she consistently demonstrates flexibility, cooperation
and a genuine interest in meeting the needs of patients and assisting fellow
co-workers. Recently, she was working in the emergency department but immediately
responded to assist in the operating room when a staff member became ill. She always
works with the nursing supervisor to ensure that each unit has the support needed to
provide safe patient care delivery.

Each quarter, the hospital’s Service Award Committee selects an employee to receive
the Quality Service Award. Criteria for selection as a Quality Service Award recipient
includes: demonstrating a consistently high level of productivity and quality of work
along with a high degree of initiative in performing work responsibilities, displaying
exceptional dependability, exhibiting effective relationships with others, displaying a
commitment to service and serving the Jefferson Medical Center community, and
meeting the criteria for the WVU Medicine mission, vision and values.

Nomination forms for the Quality Service Award are available at locations throughout
the Jefferson Medical Center campus. Anyone who witnesses an employee displaying
outstanding service is encouraged to complete and submit a nomination form.
