Ambassadorship honors massage therapist.
|
Her support of Reid events, cited by one nominator as just one aspect of an outstanding attitude, figured in the calling of Casey McPherson to the September Ambassadorship at Reid Hospital & Health Care Services. McPherson, a massage therapist since joining the Reid team three years ago, most recently lent her energy to the Reid Ride and the Busting Out in Pink party, a nomination noted. "Casey always has a kind word to say and never passes you in the hallway without making eye contact, smiling and asking how your day is going," added a colleague's testimonial. "She has a giving heart and wants to make the world a better place," said a co-worker of the Richmond resident. "Casey always jumps in to lend a helping hand without having to be asked." "Reid's philosophy fits with my vision of what it takes to promote healing," McPherson said of her work at Reid. "I'm grateful to work at a top-rated facility that understands the value massage therapy can provide patients, employees and the community." A therapy client characterized McPherson as wonderful, conscientious and intuitively adept at blending conversation and silence during treatments. A parallel judgment found her helpful, cheerful, highly skilled and compassionate. A 2007 graduate of the S.H.I. Integrative Medical Massage School in Lebanon, Ohio, McPherson has a son, Matthew, 20, a student at IU Bloomington. McPherson, who lists family time, reading and gardening as her favorite things, also rates the satisfaction of her work at Reid highly. "My co-workers are caring and supportive, and I feel lucky to spend my days with them," she writes. "Massage therapy allows me to help and connect with people on a level not always possible in this busy world."
