The WTH employee for the month of September is Becky York, the charge nurse at Kirkland Cancer Center, who has been an employee at West Tennessee Healthcare for 24 years.

She is known as their go-to for IV sticks, hypersensitivity reactions, and any other crises.

She not only helps her teammates through this but she educates them along the way. She never ceases to stop and ask the patients if she can pray for them.

She is the epitome of a nurse who takes care of patients: mind, body, and spirit. She is a GREAT mentor and leader. She is an angel on earth to some of the sickest people in our area. We are all so thankful for her!!

Darrell King, a WTH vice president,, Kelly Stafford, Director of Nursing, Kirkland Cancer Center made the presentation when the West Tennessee Healthcare Board of Trustees held their monthly meeting at Jackson-Madison County General Hospital, Tuesday.
