Congratulations to our EGRMC May 2023 Employee of the Month, physical therapist Karyl Parker. Karyl has been part of the team at EGRMC for over six years. Karyl was nominated by her colleagues for her great work ethic, sense of ownership, her commitment to providing quality service and her positive attitude while supporting her fellow physical therapy and rehab team members.
One nomination describes Karyl as, “the shining example to not only her peers and coworkers but a reminder to myself at times as well on what dedication and commitment to patient care looks like. Karyl is always willing to take on an extra task when asked and will stay late when needed, will assist with weekend coverage when needed or has even come back after hours to see 'that one last patient' to ensure quality care is given to each patient. Not only is Karyl a wonderful, compassionate and dedicated therapist to her patients but she has become a mentor and preceptor to new hires on more than one occasion. She loves any opportunity to teach and share her knowledge to help mold new grads and new hires into amazing therapists. She is dedicated to constantly learning and developing best practices for our patients and has been working hard to pursue her wound care specialty certification.”
A colleague stated, “She looks forward to bringing her knowledge to the table in committee meetings in order to better serve our patients and provide safe, quality care. Karyl is such a pleasure to work with and I'd like to share some comments about Karyl by more of her fellow team mates. 'Kaye is so positive, I love any day that we are scheduled to work together.' 'Kaye is a really good teacher, I learn something new every time I work with her.' 'Kaye is so positive, she can make you smile in any situation.' I feel Karyl truly deserves this award and is a shining example to all of us of our mission to give quality and compassionate care to every patient, every time, always.”
“Karyl is a valuable asset to our team at EGRMC," said EGRMC CEO Stephen Pennington. “She has dedicated her time and her energy to being a great team member. Karyl models our mission to provide quality healthcare services in a safe and compassionate environment to every patient, every time, always.”
