Serving Others

CONGRATULATIONS, HOLLY MARTIN!

October 10, 2022

Holly recently received a 2022 Excellence in Long Term Care Award during a recognition ceremony held at Maple Hill Farm. Dr. Nirav Shah, Director of the Maine CDC offered the keynote address. The awards, which were presented by MHCA President/ CEO, Angela Westhoff and MLTCOP Project Manager, Trinity Baker, are given annually to long-term care employees statewide who have consistently exemplified a commendable level of caregiving, dedication, and professionalism in caring for the state’s elderly and disabled citizens living in nursing homes, assisted living facilities and in individuals’ homes. Holly was one of 14 caregivers statewide who received the honor this year.

The Excellence in Long Term Care Award is designed to thank and honor Maine’s long-term care employees who spend their days and nights caring for others. To be considered, nominees must meet certain criteria, including consistent quality of caregiving, attention to residents’ rights, leadership among peers, and ability to inspire others through example. Nominations for the award were submitted by providers statewide and winners were selected by an independent panel of judges with long-term care expertise.

According to MHCA President and CEO Angela Westhoff, “This program seeks to honor the dedication, hard work, perseverance, and in some cases personal sacrifice of long-term care providers across the care continuum. We are so thankful to you, the amazing caregivers, who provide such excellent and high-quality care to Maine’s elderly and disabled citizens.”

Congratulations HOLLY!
