Shelly Kolp was selected as Sycamore Medical Center’s nominee for the 2016 Albert E. Dyckes Health Care Worker of the Year Award. This award is given by the Ohio Hospital Association to one Ohio hospital caregiver who personifies a leader, gives back to the community, reflects the mission and values of his or her organization, and routinely goes beyond the call of duty.
Shelly has a natural talent for showing genuine care and compassion while respecting the patient. She uses her skillset to educate staff across the network as a Nonviolent Crisis Intervention instructor. She also understands the needs of her co-workers, creating a relaxation room for staff and coordinating staff efforts to help an employee return to work.
