She wanted to\ncontinue working at Jamaica Hospital, but unfortunately there was a hiring\nfreeze at the time. &nbsp;Lisa waited patiently\nfor 10 months for a position to open up, but eventually was forced to accept an\noffer at another hospital. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Coincidentally, around the same time, Lisa was named Jamaica\nHospital\u2019s employee of the month. During the presentation of her certificate,\nhospital leadership learned of her situation. Not wanting to lose her as an\nemployee, a job was offered to her and she happily stayed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Lisa initially worked day and evening shifts on 4 North before\nbeing transferred to the Emergency Department in 1998 where she eventually\nbecame Assistant Head Nurse. &nbsp;&nbsp;In 2017, after nearly 20 years in Jamaica\nHospital\u2019s ER, Lisa was ready for her next challenge.&nbsp; There was an opening for a Nursing Supervisor\nposition on the evening shift. Lisa applied and was given the job.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Over the last 33 years, Lisa considers her colleagues at\nJamaica Hospital her second family.&nbsp; \u201cJamaica\nHospital has provided me with so many opportunities for advancement, for which\nI am extremely grateful.\u201d&nbsp; Lisa added, \u201cI\ngrew up at Jamaica Hospital and I\u2019m excited to now be in a position to give\nback.\u201d Lisa has returned to school to pursue her Doctorate in Nursing\nAdministration. &nbsp;In her own words, \u201cI\u2019m\nstill going.
