CHAMPIONS OF RECOVERY AWARDS

In recognition of Community Support Services’ emphasis on Recovery, the Champion of Recovery Awards was initiated in 2007. The agency’s Recovery Committee identified three categories of awards: Support Staff, Clinical Staff and Community Partner.

The Champions of Recovery Award for Support Staff for this year goes to Mary Phillips. Mary works in the Health Information Services Department and is responsible for processing and distributing the mail for CSS. Mary has worked at CSS for over two years and has an extremely positive attitude that she is able to share with others. Her ability to interact and identify with staff and others is an asset. Mary is a prime example of what change, growth and Recovery are all about.

The Clinical Champions of Recovery Award for this year is presented to Tammie Jackson. Tammie consistently conducts herself in a professional manner with her clients and co-workers. She displays emotional stability, healthy boundaries, and maintains her composure in stressful situations. She is kind and compassionate. Tammie not only performs her required duties, but, goes above and beyond. She makes sure all of her clients are up to date on their health assessments and makes frequent referrals to the nursing staff to provide health teaching (diabetics, nutritional information, etc.). Tammie manifests the many fine qualities of a clinical person with a soul who actively works with her clients on their road to Recovery.

The Community Partner Champions of Recovery Award for this year has been awarded to Lisa Oswald. In recent years, Lisa has been instrumental in assisting the agency learn about Recovery. She has served as an active community member on the Recovery Workgroup. Additionally, she developed a presentation for agency staff about the principles of Recovery and how to provide services for individuals living with mental illnesses. To date, Lisa has trained nearly 100 Community Support Services staff about Recovery and has provided valuable insight in how to proceed in our process toward implementing Recovery. She has been a strong advocate on the CSS Board of Directors. Lisa’s input and advice have been invaluable.

Congratulations to Mary Phillips, Tammie Jackson and Lisa Oswald!!!
