Maria was nominated by her Site Supervisor, who wrote:

I would like to nominate Maria Delmonico for the Innovations Super Hero of the Month Award.  Maria comes in to each shift at Garden Place with a positive attitude.  At a recent staff meeting we had discussed revamping our 7-days tool to streamline the shift tasks.  When I came in after the weekend Maria had already taken care of this completely on her own, and had also asked her co-workers for feedback about the new tool.  I have also gotten feedback from our site Nurse that Maria is very prompt and organized with her Primary paperwork, making sure that her individual gets all of her medical follow up in a timely manner.  No challenge on shift seems of phase Maria.  She is prepared and willing to do whatever it takes to provide the best possible care to the people we serve.  Her natural leadership qualities are very apparent and we are so lucky to have her on our team here at Garden Place.

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