The Carrington Chamber & EDC announces the Employees of the Month for January. Luke Kutz and Deanna Lippolis of the Radiology Department at CHI St Alexius – Carrington Medical Center were nominated recently for their teamwork. The nomination states: “When our daughter’s MRI was canceled at the last minute at Carrington Medical Center, Luke Kutz stepped into action and made some phone calls to get her in at Altru in Devils Lake the same day! Deanna was great at getting her doctor’s orders sent to Altru ASAP to make this happen before she had to fly back to Michigan.” Luke and Deanna were presented with a framed certificate and $20 each in Carrington cash for their teamwork.
The Chamber and Economic Development Corporation office awarded Billie Knudson and Shannon Mehring the honors of Employees of the Month for February. Their nomination states: “Shannon and Billie have gone above and beyond for me on numerous occasions. My kids have been non-stop sick, so I’ve recently had to call for numerous last minute appointments or questions. They both do their best to fit us in or have someone return my call. The never make me feel guilty for bringing them in or question if we really need to be seen again. You walk in and they greet with a smile asking ‘What can we do for you?’ I’ve called Shannon with billing questions and she jumps right in to help. I’ve asked Billie questions outside of work hours and she is always quick to offer reassurance or advice. Being a mom can sometimes be hard with sick kids, but having Shannon and Billie at the clinic makes it a little easier. Carrington is lucky to have people like Shannon and Billie!” This awesome team of two received a framed certificate and $20.00 each in Carrington Cash.
