Two Radiant Senior Living team members from Pioneer Village Independent and Assisted Living in Jacksonville, Oregon will be honored at the Oregon Health Care Association awards ceremony. The ceremony will take place on September 19th at the Oregon Convention Center during the Oregon Health Care Association’s annual convention. Beondi Hewson has won the “Above and Beyond Service Award” and Regina Burton has won the “Caregiver of the Year Award”.
“Beondi knows every inch of our community from the voltage of light bulbs in every resident room to the exact amps needed to operate our cooling system. She completes every monthly, quarterly and annual inspection on time and flawlessly,” said Dora Howard, Executive Director of Pioneer Village. “Regina’s outstanding demonstration of person-centered care includes many fine details starting with her how each resident expects their bed to be made all the way down to how a resident likes the crust cut off of their morning toast.”
In addition to the two winners, Pioneer Village had two nominees that were honored with certificates of nomination. Dora Howard was nominated for Administrator of the Year and resident Erika Natwick was nominated for the Enrichment of Life award.
