Seneca recognizes employee dedication
The Seneca Healthcare District, more commonly referred to as Seneca Hospital, has been a vital part of the Almanor Basin for many years.
One of the reasons it continues to serve the community so well is the dedication of members of both the medical and administrative staff that pursue the idea of making the hospital better every day.
Seneca has around 90 to 95 full time staff at any given time with another 30 or so in the part-time or per diem category.
The SHD board of directors and administration chose Thursday, May 16, as a day to recognize and thank the staff for their hard work and in some cases long-time commitment.
This year alone there are a dozen people that have achieved certain milestones in their careers at Seneca.

Congratulations to this year’s recipients with recognition to all those that are in between or approaching these milestones.
A monetary award also goes along with the recognition pin, which naturally brings some smiles upon acceptance.
Every employee was presented a gift as a token of appreciation for his or her efforts.
A tasty lunch of barbequed tri-tip, potato and green salad was provided by the folks at Lake Almanor Elks Lodge 2626 and they topped it off with a choice of either a root beer or black cherry cream float.
