 Ten CarolinaEast Health System employees were recently honored by the organization’s administration and their peers as recipients of the 2017 Clinical Excellence Awards.
Clinical Excellence Awards are presented to clinical professionals who exhibit superior technical skills, professional standards and a commitment to community service. A selection committee, consisting of past Clinical Excellence Award recipients, reviews the nominees who are submitted by immediate supervisors and endorsed by at least one peer as part of the selection process.
In addition to the recognition associated with this distinguished award, recipients are also given the opportunity to continue the professional development that earned them the honor of the award. CarolinaEast Health System sponsors the recipients’ attendance at the national educational conference of their choice for their particular profession.
“Since this award is given in recognition of professional excellence, we felt it was fitting to incorporate an opportunity to advance that excellence into the award itself,” explained Rosanne Leahy, Vice President of Nursing Services.

– Angel Carr, RNIII – Outpatient Services/Endoscopy

We are very fortunate and proud to have them on our team,” she added.
