Join us in celebrating Bonnie Tackett-Brown, LPN, our Visiting Nurse Health System’s October Employee of the Month!
Bonnie was awarded this honor for her patient-centered, mission-driven approach to her nursing service here at Visiting Nurse's Home Health service line. Bonnie naturally goes above and beyond the normal call of duty, as she serves our patients and their needs. But her vocational-driven style doesn't end there! She also supports her teammates when they need nursing help she is first to say “yes,” with a generous attitude. 
Thank you Bonnie for all you give each day!
