families and granting leaves of absence, if needed.”

6. Celebrating Veterans Day

7. Blake Collins,
Director of Clinical
Engineering,
U.S. Navy
Extraordinary People - Having
retired from the Navy I fully
understand the qualities that Service
members bring to the work place.
They typically come with a very good
work ethic that any department or
work group would be thrilled to
replicate. Military personnel have
been trained to work toward efficiency,
ask for guidance when needed, and
exercise self-discipline in professional
settings. Hiring managers looking to
create the exceptional experience
should consider military candidates
because of their past experience
of increased productivity and strong
motivation.

8. Sam Wetherill, Director of Pharmacy Operations, U.S. Army
Exceptional Experience –
Working for the military has provided me the
opportunity to work with people from all over
the world in a variety of environments. My
experiences have been tremendously beneficial
with understanding the unique needs of every
patient. Leveraging this experience, we can
truly work to provide an exceptional patient
experience and advance the Christiana Care
Way.

9. Richard Brackett
Human Resources
Specialist
U.S. Air Force
Strategic Partnerships - I can think of no greater resource of
extraordinary people for CCHS to tap into than veterans and our
currently serving National Guard and Reserve forces. They bring a
wealth of real world experience and technical knowledge that will further
advance the Christiana Care Way. There is no greater testament to
service before self than serving your country wherever you are needed. By
developing strategic partnerships with former and current service member
organizations we can enable these individuals to continue to serve local
communities through Christiana Care employment.

10. The fortitude and resilience service members and veterans have
exhibited in the military can be leveraged here at Christiana Care.

job done. We admire your unique experiences and ability to perform
under pressure in extraordinary circumstances.
Your dedication and commitment enables you to partner with our
