WELLSVILLE, NY – Kimberly Mulkin, Cardio-Pulmonary Tech at
JMH, has been chosen as the Jones Memorial Hospital Care Champion for the second
quarter of 2018. Four times a year, the hospital recognizes a staff member or
volunteer as a Care Champion. To be nominated, the person must demonstrate -
through words or actions - an exemplary commitment to JMH patients, to their
heir co-workers, and to the JMH employee Code of Conduct.
Kim was nominated by her colleague Patty Brainard, a Medical
Imaging Technologist at JMH. When Patty’s car broke down on her way to work one
cold and rainy day, Kim saw her and stopped to offer her assistance. “Kim then
hopped in her car and brought me back a can of gas to see if that was the
problem,” said Patty. “It was an amazing thing for her to do! She is always so
kind and thoughtful and not just to her co-workers, but to her patients as
well.”
Kim, who has been at JMH for three years, says her favorite
part of the job her patients and being able to help them. “I work with
inpatients and outpatients and I get to meet some wonderful people,” she said.
“In this profession, you see people at their best and at their worst. To me,
the job is all about the patients.” Kim has been in the healthcare field for 30
years, starting her career as a cardiac sonographer after earning her
certification at Washburn University in Kansas. Something you may not know
about Kim? She has a fraternal twin sister who lives in Franklinville.
“My second favorite part of my job is my co-workers,” she
added. “The ER staff and the x-ray staff here are the most impressive I have
ever worked with. This is a nice organization to work for and I am very happy
to be part of the UR Jones Family!”
Please join us in congratulating Kim on her selection as
Care Champion!
