Beverly Hospital Names Star of Excellence Recipient
Gloucester resident recognized for her outstanding job performance

(Beverly, MA) - March 30, 2010 - Beverly Hospital recently announced Gloucester resident Susan Poor, switchboard operator, as a recipient of the organization's Star of Excellence award. Throughout the year, the Hospital recognizes employees that go above and beyond to reflect the mission statement of the organization-Quality, Caring and Community-and Poor shows exemplary efforts in doing so.

Poor received the Star of Excellence Award after being nominated by her switchboard co-workers at Beverly Hospital. Poor has worked for Beverly Hospital as a switchboard operator for 22 years. Poor's coworkers expressed that she is smart, energetic and a pleasant employee and that she takes on tasks that are not required of her that benefit the switchboard and its staff.

"Susan truly embodies all of the qualities that we look for in a Star of Excellence recipient," said Michele Boucher, switchboard supervisor at Beverly Hospital. "We all recognize that Susan is an incredible asset to our day-to-day operations and it's a pleasure to work with someone who brings such energy to the department."

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