Super Hero of the Month for June!

Every month, Innovations presents the “Super Hero of the Month” award to the employee or provider who has best demonstrated excellence in one or more of our Innovations Quality Standards:

• Health, Safety, and Wellbeing
• Effective and Efficient
• Respect and Dignity
• Opportunities
• Integrity
• Care

This month, the award was presented to Maria "Shen" Hollcraft, who is a Residential Counselor at the Santa Fe Group Home.

Shen was nominated by her Site Supervisor and Residential Assistant Site Supervisor, who wrote:

Shen constantly looks for more work to do and is a very hard and thoughtful worker.  She completes the tasks listed on internal tracking systems without being asked to do them, and she always checks in with supervisors to ensure there is no more work to be done before leaving.  She is highly productive, and has a constant positive attitude. She is also very open to addressing individual concerns patiently, even during times of a busy shift.  

  

Shen is very deserving of this award.  She is always upbeat and positive.  She is a staff that is always staying busy and asking for things to do.  She is very respectful and courteous to the clients and other staff as well.  She has been a tremendous asset in helping cover vacations and short notice shifts.  She makes it a point to speak to and spend time with all the clients each time she works.  She is always smiling which sets the day off right as smiles go a long way in making other people feel good.

If you see Shen around, please congratulate her on being our Super Hero of the Month!
