St. Catherine of Siena Nursing & Rehabilitation Care Center Employee Receives Shining Star Award From Long Island Health Network

Smithtown, NY 11787- On October 4, 2012, Erin Bourguignon, RN, Infection Preventionist/Pharmacy Liaison and employee since 2003, was recognized as a Shining STAR Recipient at the Long Island Health Network awards ceremony at the Crest Hollow Country Club. Long Island Health Network joined together, in 1998, with 10 hospitals, to improve and standardize their clinical qualities, enhance their operation efficiency, and expand access to care for all Long Islanders. This award chooses individuals, who are nominated from their individual facilities, who show leadership, excellence in communication, teamwork, self improvement, customer service, and problem solving. Each recipient represents the ideals of patient-centered care and delivers outstanding performance above, and beyond the call of duty.
