Date
July 6, 2015

Westview Health Care Center of Dayville has named Sports Medicine Administrative Assistant Deb Sargent their June Employee of The Month. She has been employed at Westview since November 8, 2014.

Sargent’s responsibilities include the overall coordination of the daily activities of the Sports Medicine center such as scheduling, verifying insurances, obtaining authorizations, assessing and organizing the needs of staff, communicating with physician offices and maintaining patient charts.

“Deb’s work ethic and style keeps the fast-paced Sports Medicine Center running like a well-oiled machine,” stated Administrator David T. Panteleakos. “She manages her duties with flexibility, precision; and naturally makes each patient feel they are well supported and tended to.”

Although born in 1959 in Barnwell, South Carolina, Sargent moved to Connecticut to be closer to family and graduated from Waterford High School in Waterford, Connecticut.

“I was very surprised and humbled by the nomination,” remarked Sargent. “I try hard everyday to do my job to the best of my ability. Being at Westview makes it easy to go above and beyond because everyone is so supportive. This is a fabulous organization to work for.”

She states that her dearly beloved Pauly and she live in a 300 year old home in Sterling. This beautiful relic, bought in 1996 is a labor of love that they remodel and update with as much of the reclaimed materials as possible. Rather than exotic vacationing, they spend as much time as possible gardening and working on the home. Deb also enjoys knitting, reading history and cooking large quantities of comfort food to entertain her “lovely” family.

Westview Health Care Center is a 103-bed skilled nursing inpatient facility, which includes a distinct and self-contained 28-bed subacute short-term rehabilitation unit and an Outpatient Rehabilitation and Aquatic Center, both dedicated to providing quality health care services. Along with garnering a perfect five star overall rating found on Medicare.gov Westview is proud to have received such accolades as US News and World Report America’s Best, Consumer Reports Top 10 Connecticut Nursing Facility rating and Health Grades 5-Star Top Ranking.
