July 2010/ Joann Edwards
Congratulations to Joann Edwards as our July 2010 Employee of the Month.
Joann has been a hab tech for her consumer for the past three years. Her experience has helped her consumer in a variety of ways. He has been able to achieve things no one thought would be possible. Her consumer is now able to stand on his own, enjoys counting and although his voice is not yet understandable, she has worked with him to say the number “eight”. Joann pushes her consumer to clean up after himself by guiding him to put his toys away. She has displayed an outstanding work ethic. She always arrives to work early and has a “can do” attitude. Joann is constantly interested in training new staff to make sure her consumer continues on the path of progress. She takes the initiative to make sure her consumer enjoys all the different activities that are available to him in our Greensboro community. His social life is very active and his calendar is full- thanks to Joann. She has enhanced the quality of her consumer’s life so many ways.
Again Lindley would like to congratulate Joann Edwards as our July Employee of Month |
June 2010/ Heather Fix

Congratulations to Heather Fix as our June 2010 Employee of the Month.
Heather Fix is a hab tech for Lindley Habilitation Services. She took on the responsibility of being the cheerleading coach for Carter Vocational School in August 2009. During the next nine months this group of special needs students which consist of four Lindley consumers were on a whirlwind ride. During the fall she arranged for the cheerleading team to cheer at local football games every Friday night and then for Carter’s basketball team during their season. Heather arranged for the team to perform at halftime during a Wake Forest women’s basketball game. All four consumers participated in numerous winter parades and attended every cheerleading tournament she could find (some were through Special Olympics and others where they were the only special needs team participating). Heather coordinated weekly practices, fundraisings, coordinated parental support participation and all along working her shifts with her consumer. Our Lindley consumers have gained confidence, improved in their social skills and have acquired a tremendous sense of pride due to all the hard work and efforts of Heather.
Again Lindley would like to congratulate Heather Fix as our June Employee of Month. |

Congratulations to Kelly Kaifer as our May 2010 Employee of the Month
Kelly is an amazing asset to her consumer’s team. She is consistent with her schedule and she updates her CS with any calendar changes. She is creative with running her consumer’s goals and goes above and beyond her job description by utilizing other resources to introduce different and more fun ways to run the goals. She is dedicated to ensuring all the consumer’s needs are met. Kelly has a very therapeutic, but fun, relationship with her consumers. She smiles through the rough times and never gives up. Also, Kelly establishes excellent boundaries with her consumers and the families she works with, and maintains a professional and therapeutic relationship, while still having fun interaction on a daily basis. She is extremely reliable, and you can always count on her to go the extra mile in serving her consumers and their families.
Again Lindley Habilitation Services would like to congratulate Kelly Kaifer as May 2010 Employee of the Month. |
April 2010/Audrey Mendes
 |
Congratulations to Audrey Mendes as our April 2010 Employee of the Month Audrey has been a great staff since she started working with her consumer in January of 2009. She is very dedicated to her consumer and takes the time to read her consumer’s Plan of Care and the How to Section so the goals are carried out effectively. Audrey has taken the time to learn sign language on her own so she could better communicate with her consumer. Audrey gives great feedback and suggests new ideas to help her consumer be more independent and complete the goals that has been put in place. She is great in communicating with her supervisor about any changes, behaviors and/or concerns that she has. Audrey is very good to call and respond to all her Clinical Supervisor’s phone calls and emails. She never complains when it is time for data corrections or to follow up on compliance.
Again Lindley Habilitation Services would like to congratulate Audrey Mendes as April 2010 Employee of the Month. |
March 2010/Eugene Craig
 |
He has been a loyal staff to our agency for several years. During his time here, he has faithfully served and provided exceptional services to two of our families. He is very consistent with keeping me informed of the daily happenings with his consumer. He is a great team player that is always looking at ways to bring the team together so that the consumer can reach all of his goals. He rarely requests off and if time is needed off, he often makes arrangements for someone to cover his shifts. One of the best qualities that Eugene possesses is that he is quickly able to learn from mistakes. He is always looking at ways he can better himself and in turn, promote his consumers’ independence. Eugene is an exemplary staff! Thank you Eugene for all that you have done to uphold our mission!
Again Congratulations to Eugene Craig! |
February 2010/ Jennifer Ballard
 |
Her supervisor states “Jennifer is a kind, polite, and creative staff. She is always willing to help out with open coverage, responds in a timely manner to all of my calls, and completes all data corrections when she is asked to do so. Jennifer has gone above and beyond her position as a habilitation technician. Since our consumer’s progress is noted on documentation, she has ensured she gets all goals filled out correctly and appropriately. She follows her billing calendar and never has to make corrections to her documentation. Her consumer continues to thrive through her creative attempts to run his goals. She has helped him with his organization skills, increasing his word usage, and his bathing skills. I would like to recognize Jennifer for her hard work with our company. She would be an amazing asset to any team.”
Again congratulations to Jennifer Ballard.

January 2010/Lindsey Moses
|
Lindsey Moses has been with LHS for about a year and her Clinical Supervisor has been consistently impressed with her professionalism, reliability, and great attitude. Last January, Lindsay came on to her case as a new staff to Lindley, but as her supervisor you would have never have guessed she was new to this field. She has had a level-headed, positive, and creative approach in working with her consumer’s behaviors. Lindsay has offered great insight and feedback to the family and team, but also accepts suggestions and feedback very well, as you can always trust that she will implement the feedback you give her the very next time she works. She has been very consistent with working her shifts, and in the recent weeks has almost doubled the hours she works while we search for another staff. I have received comments from her consumer’s family, case manager, and behavior psychologist about how impressed they are with the work she has done. We have seen a drastic reduction in the number of incidents and behaviors with Lindsay’s consumer, and believe that a lot of that has to do with having a strong staff like Lindsay working with her. The case manager states she is undoubtedly one of the strongest staff she has ever observed in 20+ years in the field. She is able to motivate her consumer in many ways, with fun and playful ideas. Lindsey’s easy going and relaxed personality, but also being alert and involved, makes the consumer responds very well to her.

Robert returns all calls in a timely manner and fills in whenever possible along with taking on a new schedule at the last minute with his consumer. He has few data corrections and is always doing something special for his consumers as a personal incentive whether taking them to a movie or planning a activity he knows they will enjoy.
