SCARC is proud to announce that the Lafayette Group Home is the Program of the Quarter for April, May, and June 2008. Congratulations to the Lafayette team of: Elaine Predmore, John Greendyk, Caroline Michalski, Linda Howey, Sarah Hennessey, and Agim Colaku for earning this award.
The staff at Lafayette has recently dealt with some serious individual medical issues which presented some scheduling challenges. The employees of the house worked together to ensure appropriate coverage in the house and to allow all of the individuals to enjoy their leisure activities as well. They have done all of this while embracing their responsibility to control costs through minimizing overtime. Even since back in 2007, prior to our agency focus on expenses, Lafayette consistently utilized fewer than 10 hours of overtime per pay. Many times they are under 5 hours per pay; this is quite a commendable feat!!!
Under the guidance of their management team and through an all out group effort these employees have all excelled at their work with SCARC and the people we support.
Kudos and Congratulations on a well deserved award!!!
