Lashonda Taylor-Health Hero for December

January 30th, 2010 by DMH

Lashonda Taylor has been named the DMH health hero for December 2009.

A DMH patient was scheduled for an induction on recently. Dr. Shrum had provided the patient with a motel room, so she wouldn’t have to leave Pine Bluff at 4:30 am. Still, she didn’t have a ride to the hospital for a 5:45 am admission. Lashonda set her alarm for 5:20 am and went to the motel and picked the patient up and brought her to the hospital. This was literally done in the middle of the night…something that no one, including the patient expected her to do.

This shows the caring and dedication Lashonda has for our patients. DMH CEO Mike Laydifield complimentedTaylor by saying, “I am very proud of her for giving up her sleep to do this.”
