Date
November 2, 2018

     Michael Panteleakos has been selected as Westview Health Care Center’s Employee of the Month for October 2018. Michael works in the financial department at the facility as the Director of Billing and Fiscal Services Program Management Development.

     “We have so many great people that work at Westview and to be selected as ‘Employee of the Month’ is very special,” Michael remarked. He believes that he arrived at his professional calling by being a persistent problem solver, explaining: “I like to find the best way to help things to operate, specifically, business systems in this case. Whether that’s finding improvements on a daily, monthly, or annual basis—it’s my way of contributing to the overall success of the organization. We all work together towards Westview’s ultimate goal of delivering excellent patient care and great customer service.”

      Michael is a native of Northeast Connecticut and is now raising his three young children in the area with his wife Molly. There were only a few years when he was earning an education at UConn and subsequently pursuing some of his first career steps in Worcester that he was absent from the area. Michael’s affinity for his home town is due to many of his interests and extracurricular activities that connect him to the quiet corner. For him, this means connecting with his large extended family throughout Connecticut, running through this area’s idyllic New England neighborhoods and woodlands, perfecting his golf game at one of his favorite regional courses, and continuing his family legacy in a place connected to his own history.

      “Michael is an outstanding manager and leader here at Westview,” stated Donna LaHaie, Westview’s Director of Finance. “He works hard, he is dedicated and he provides a great example for others to emulate. Being named as employee of the month is a very well deserved acknowledgment for Michael.”
