Katherine Bunting-Williams, Ph.D., FMH CEO, said, “Among these 24 employees there is a cumulative total of 275 years of service in our facility. Each of them come to work with a true servant’s heart. These dedicated employees sacrifice so much to work in healthcare day in and day out for years and years and provide their best for this community, and their dedication does not go unrecognized.
