Employee of the Quarter- Celia Alton
May 12, 2022
Celia is a quiet person who always greets everyone with a smile on her face and is eager to help in any way. She addresses any Safety or Quality concerns appropriately and works well in stressful situations. She is kind-hearted to her fellow co-workers and to all she comes in contact with. Celia helped with the COVID clinics without being asked. She saw the need and jumped in. She was an integral part of the Carolina Medical Group COVID Vaccine Team. During the vaccine clinics, whether it was a pop-up in Pageland, Jefferson, Lamar or Hartsville, she would always ask how she could help. Any time that we needed another set of hands for registration, she was there. She learned how to do more Athena documentation, placing orders, resetting passwords, opening schedules and managing the paperwork preparation before and after the Saturday clinics just so that she could help out in a bind. To say that she was an asset during the COVID Vaccine Clinics (on and off campus), would be an understatement.
Celia is always eager to learn anything new to help Carolina Pines Medical Group. In the past year, she stepped up in her involvement, beyond her primary role. She shows appreciation and gratitude to others whether it’s her peers, patients or providers. Her polite demeanor and friendly smile makes those around her value her communication and attitude. Celia is a prime example of someone that wants to learn more, succeed, and have fun while doing it. She is ambitious and her personality/attitude is contagious.
Celia graduated from Hartsville High School in May, 2015. She has worked as a Sales Associate at Minnie’s Giftique and Belk. She began her medical career at Carolina Pines Medical Group as a Receptionist in October of 2017. She started a new position as a New Patient Intake Coordinator in January of 2022 She wants to learn and grow in her new role and help others to do the same, which is the definition of a genuine person. Celia loves to shop, watch Netflix and hang out with family and friends. She has a dog names “Charlie” and a cat named “Riley.”
