Congratulations to Mikai Carrington, Direct Support Professional for being selected as NHR’s Employee of the Month for February!

Mikai’s nomination read as follows:

We would like to nominate Mikai Carrington for going the extra mile for one of our residents at Miron Drive who had a medical emergency during this past major snow storm. Mikai had just finished his overnight shift and could have left but he did not hesitate going in the ambulance with the individual and stayed with them throughout the major storm. He made sure they got the medical care they needed. Even after they were discharged, but could not leave the hospital, he was able to make sure the individual had activities they love to do (coloring books). They both were stuck at the hospital until 4 a.m. Throughout all of this, Makai was always pleasant and cheerful with no complaints about working the very long hours and kept the individual comfortable in a stressful situation.

I called Mikai every two hours to check on him and the individual. Making sure they were okay and seeing how he was doing. With every conversation, Makai was pleasant and professional. He truly exhibited what it means to go up and beyond. I applaud his dedication and patience.

Mikai will receive a $100 VISA gift card for being selected Employee of the Month. Please thank and congratulate Mikai when you see him!
