Paula Van Roekel with Occupational Health was selected as Pella Regional Health Center’s January Shining Star for her high performance standards. The Pella resident was nominated based on commitment, safety, and sense of ownership.

Excerpt from her nomination:
“Paula has shown exceptional commitment to Pella Regional, especially in the past month. She had the responsibility of administering COVID-19 vaccines to employees in a short period of time. She spent many hours over the holidays administering vaccines to staff. She communicated with all departments to ensure the vaccine was used efficiently, answering questions on scheduling, and lining up extra help to document and organize. Paula’s commitment to Pella Regional shows why she is a Shining Star!

Van Roekel will receive $100, a plaque, and be nominated for the Shining Star of the Year award.
