Bayhealth thanks volunteers for time and service
Bayhealth recently showed appreciation the 384 in-house volunteers who donated more than 97,000 hours of their time and support in 2023 with a celebratory luncheon.
The volunteers enjoyed an afternoon focused on celebrating their contributions which were equivalent to more than $3 million worth of services.
“Our volunteers serve in many different areas of our health system,” said Jenni Bobel, volunteer services manager. “From pet therapy teams to those who transport our patients, we have an incredible team of volunteers who are passionate about helping our patients and supporting Bayhealth team members.”
The luncheon included a photo booth, DJ and time for connecting with Bayhealth team members and leaders who showed their thanks to the volunteers. PAM Health graciously provided a buffet lunch.
“We’re incredibly grateful to the 384 volunteers across Bayhealth who gave of their own time to support our patients and the communities we serve,” said Terry Murphy, FACHE, Bayhealth president and CEO. “Your support in key areas means we’re able to focus on the important work we do each day and that’s taking care of our patients.”
Chaplaincy Service Awards were presented to Yvonne Mullens and Harold “Skip” Holmberg. Dolores Greenlee and Carol Kates received the 2023 Physician’s Appreciation Award.
“Our volunteers positively impact our health system every day thanks to their generosity of time and talent,” said Lindsay Rhodenbaugh, DMin., Bayhealth Foundation president.
