Our jobs are difficult. There’s no doubt about that. We help people live independent lives. We push them to achieve their goals, and we advocate for them every step of the way. It’s hard work, but it’s worth it. The smiles we see, achievements we witness, and relationships we form are proof of the outcomes we deliver to thousands of people every year.
It’s the work of heroes. It’s our work. And it's more important than ever. We show up day in and day out for our teams and for the people in our care. They depend on us, and we depend on them. Together, we are the healthcare heroes of this era.
Inspired by your efforts, we are highlighting employees who have gone above and beyond. They have risen to the challenge and continue to serve our mission despite everything this past year has thrown at us.
This month’s Healthcare Hero is Adam Pehl.
Adam is completely accepting of others for who they are. He embraces differences knowing that’s what makes people unique and provides support in meaningful ways for them. His gentle and reassuring approach builds self-esteem and strengthens self-worth. He’s consistent and a valued team member by all of his peers.
With Adam, you can tell without a doubt that he’s serious about his commitment to care. He has one of the biggest hearts of anyone, and he always has the best interests of kids and team members in mind. He’s dependable and has led the charge for many of our positive outcomes.
Adam, your efforts are truly making a difference. Thank you for your dedication and commitment to the kids in Great Falls. We’re proud to call you a Healthcare Hero!
