In May, I had the pleasure of introducing one of our MICU nurses, Althea Elliot, RN, when she spoke at a recognition ceremony hosted by the 1199-SEIU Training and Education Fund. Althea was chosen to tell her story and how 1199-SEIU has supported her through her many career accomplishments, including very recently becoming an American citizen. It was such an honor to be there and to connect with her.
Althea has become one of my own role models, and when you meet her through this video I think you will understand why. Check out the first in our series where I will be interviewing employees and learning what being part of the BI community means to them.
If you know someone in need, Althea would like you to know about the food pantry she is leading at Bethel Temple of Praise, 191 North Broadway, Yonkers, N.Y., 10701 on the third Tuesday of every month.
I can’t wait for you to meet more of our outstanding employees.
