Rehabilitation Services Speech Pathologist/Quality Assessment Liaison Robin Honored as Employee of the Month for June 2019

Rehabilitation Services Speech Pathologist/Quality Assessment Liaison has received the North Oaks Health System Employee of the Month Award for June 2019.

Robin joined Rehabilitation Services in 2003 as a Speech Pathologist and added the role of Quality Assessment Liaison in 2012.

"Every day is filled with opportunities to make a difference in someone’s quality of life," shares Robin.

Since 2016, she has also been putting her expert knowledge of quality standards to work in her off time as a surveyor for the Commission on Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities (CARF International).

She earned a bachelor’s degree in Speech and Hearing Sciences from the University of Southern Mississippi in Hattiesburg and a master’s degree in Communication Sciences and Disorders through Southeastern Louisiana University.

Robin lives in Denham Springs with her husband Dean and their son John Curtis, 8.

Away from work, she cherishes time spent with her family and volunteers with Live Oak Church as a choir member and a teacher for its Axis56 group for girls.

"As a Speech Pathologist and Quality Assessment Liaison, Robin shines," asserts Rehabilitation Services Director Mac Barrient. "Her in-depth knowledge of quality standards recently helped our Rehabilitation Hospital achieve CARF International re-accreditation with zero recommendations for improvement. This rare accomplishment is achieved by only 3% of facilities surveyed worldwide.“
