Beverly Hospital Names Star of Excellence Recipient Hospital and coworkers recognize Warren's worth

(Beverly, MA)--Beverly Hospital announced Warren Worth, a Lynn resident, as the most recent recipient of the organization’s Star of Excellence Award. Throughout the year, Beverly Hospital recognizes employees that go above and beyond to reflect the mission statement of the organization-Quality, Caring and Community-and Worth is a wonderful example of just that.

Warren Worth, senior security guard at Beverly Hospital, was nominated for the honor by his coworkers. The nomination forms continuously recognized and commended him for his patience, care, respect and attentiveness to customer service and providing assistance throughout the hospital.

"It’s humbling; this is quite an honor," said Worth when asked about being designated as a Star of Excellence. Then added, "Of course, you’re only as good as the people you work with. The entire security department has made great strides in providing quality customer service to patients, visitors and fellow associates."

Warren has been working at Beverly Hospital for a year and a half and over the past eight months has worked the overnight security shift. When he is not assisting others and providing security at the hospital, he enjoys watching football-especially the Patriots--and spending time outside.

"Warren is always willing to help, no matter who, why or where,"

said Elisa Scher, director of cancer services for Beverly Hospital, who was among those that nominated Worth for the award. "He is an astounding example of all the things this organization represents."

As a Star of Excellence award recipient, Worth was presented with a framed certificate of recognition along with additional gifts at a reception held in his honor at Beverly Hospital. His supervisors and coworkers were very pleased to see him recognized with this award, all agreeing that he certainly represents all aspects of what a "Star of Excellence" recipient should be.
