Traci Lee Receives National Recognition for Delivery of Superior Hospice Care during National Nursing Assistants Week

MOUNTAIN GROVE, Mo. – The Compassus program serving Mountain Grove and the surrounding areas is proud to recognize Traci Lee during National Nursing Assistants Week June 14-21. Lee, who has been a nursing assistant with Compassus since 2003, is being recognized for her dedication to providing the highest level of quality hospice care for patients and their families.

“We are proud to recognize Traci for her tireless commitment to providing superior hospice care. Nursing assistants go beyond fulfilling patients’ medical needs – they truly dedicate their lives to caring for and supporting others,” said Carla Roberts, executive director for Compassus – Mountain Grove.

“Traci is an integral part of the Compassus team,” said Sarah Long, director of clinical services for  Compassus – Mountain Grove. “Thanks to her selfless service, our program is able to deliver a more meaningful end-of-life experience for our patients and their loved ones.”

                       

Nursing assistants provide as much as 90 percent of the direct long-term care delivered in the United States, interacting daily with an array of personalities, cultures, abilities and disabilities in nursing homes, home care, hospice, assisted living and other long-term care settings.

Compassus – Mountain Grove will recognize other local nursing assistants during National Nursing Assistants Week by presenting them with framed certificates of appreciation for their dedication to the patients and families they serve.
