Employee of The Month

February 2011

Maria Corbitt

Maria has been with the Lamar Medical Center since June 2009 as a Medical Assistant.  She has demonstrated a commitment to the mission of the organization, as well as teamwork, compassion, and dedication to the job in which she performs.   This month we congratulate Maria for her service and we say, "Job well done!"

The Employee of the Month for August is Minister Ceminthia Grant.  Minister Grant has been a member of the 30901 Development Corporation Team since Jan. 24, 2005.  Her present position is Director of Community Programs. As Director of Community Programs, Minister Grant is responsible for our Work Experience Program (formerly GoodWorks!) and our SAC (Students About Change) Program.  As Director of our Work Experience Program, Ceminthia works untiringly with young ladies who are TANF (Temporary Assistance to Needy Families) recipients.  She provides job coaching, skill development, personal development and employment training with local businesses for these young ladies who are attempting to enter or re enter the work force.  Her work does not end at 5:30, but continues after office hours as these young ladies attempt to overcome barriers that have prevented them from attaining their goals. As Director of our SAC Program, Ceminthia engages students who may be at the risk of underachieving.  The Mission of the Program is to:  “Educate, Empower and Equip Students for Success”.  Recently she engaged the students in a 6 week camp that included educational field trips to Graystone Ranch in Burke County.  This gave the students an opportunity to learn, explore and see beyond their current environment.  Her passion for these young students was not dampened by the 100 degree temperatures or the unruly farm animals. In addition to her job assignments she has many ‘ministry’ assignments.  Her willingness to go ‘beyond’ the call of duty and her desire to help people as well as her willingness to share her ‘gift of singing’ is a blessing to this campus.  On any given day you may hear songs of praise coming from her office!Congratulations Minister Grant!

Lillie Ann Williams

The Beulah Grove Community Resource Center, Inc, Lamar Medical Center, and 30901 Development Corporation take this time to congratulate Lillie Ann Williams for being selected employee of the month, March 2011.  Lillie has been with the Beulah Grove Campus since 2001.  The service that Lillie provides and the support she gives to all is a definite example of Jesus Christ.  She always goes above and beyond the call of duty to make sure everyone’s needs are met.  Her humble and compassionate spirit has been a change agent in the lives of those we serve, as well as her co-workers. There are a couple of things that will help you know Lillie:  Her smile that is always present no matter what and her singing… “Jesus keep me near the cross…”  Again, congratulations to a faithful and dedicated employee!

Fannie Singfield

Mrs. Harris has been with Lamar Medical Center for 11 years as the Office Manager.  The job she performs on a daily basis is too large to outline.  She provides stability, support, and direction to the team.  She provides comfort and a listening ear to the patients and their concerns.  Cindi affectionately known by most of the team as “momma” has a wonderful spirit and personality.  She works hard, gives much and demands much.  Cindi has always been a team player. We thank God for sending Cindi to us, to help fulfill the vision of the Beulah Grove Campus and the mission of Lamar Medical Center:  To provide access to quality comprehensive, culturally diverse, and community-based primary care. Congratulations Cynthia (Cindi) Harris on a job well done!!!

Mrs. Alice Wells

Mrs. Alice Wells is the very deserving employee of the month for May.  Since 2007, Mrs. Wells has been our Resident Manager for Linden Square Senior Apartments. She came to us with many years of apartment management experience.  She displays this experience by efficiently managing the 48 apartments at Linden Square.  She handles the day to day operations, the maintenance of the building, the various inspections and audit reviews, and most recently she handled the capital improvements of the building. However, most importantly, she makes sure our ‘senior residents’ live in a safe, comfortable, and aesthetically beautiful environment.  Mrs. Wells takes much pleasure in planning events for the residents to make sure they are constantly engaged in activities that allow them an opportunity to interact with the other residents.  (Various holiday parties, movies, cookouts, computer classes, coupon clipping sessions, no sew quilting parties and Bible study to name a few)  You will even find that if a resident is feeling under the weather, she checks on them several times a day to be sure they are alright.  You may even find her walking the halls with a resident who may have had knee surgery and needs the extra motivation to ‘walk’. On paper, Mrs. Wells’ hours are Monday thru Friday, 9:00 to 5:00 pm. But in actuality you may find her at Linden Square on the weekends, after hours or anytime one of her residents has a need or concern.  In other words, if her ‘precious seniors’ need her, she is there.  Mrs. Wells is, without a doubt, an asset to Linden Square Senior Apartments and the Beulah Grove Campus.  Her ‘passion’ for this call on her life is to be applauded.
