Good Shepherd Hospice Honors Two Employees for Living the Mission

John Mitty Tuesday, July 30, 2013

Melville, NY – Two Good Shepherd Hospice employees, Valrie Brown-Prince, Home Health Aide and Dr. Linda Carmosino, were recently presented with the Catholic Health Services (CHS) Living the Mission Award for exemplifying the CHS mission values of respect, justice, integrity and excellence.  Ms. Brown-Prince, a Bay Shore resident, and Dr. Carmosino, a resident of Merrick, were nominated by their colleagues for their outstanding qualities and were chosen from among many nominees.  

Ms. Brown-Prince was nominated by a co-worker because of comments from a family in our community.  “Valrie gave superlative physical care but she also gave of herself. At the time she spent in the patient's home, she would sit with the patient, hold her hand, speak with her, giving 1:1 presence and honoring the individual.”

“Dr. Carmosino is …. eager to teach us all, and respecting our roles in each category. I have learned medical information, that can only be accomplished with an ongoing dialogue with all disciplines…. She is such a wealth of information and I learn something every time I speak with her.  She always has time for my questions and is very supportive…I believe Dr. Carmosino is "Living theMission" in many ways.”

Ms. Brown-prince has been with Good Shepherd Hospice for 5 months while Dr. Carmosino joined the Good Shepherd Hospice team in 2008.
