Her primary responsibilities include total patient room cleaning, waste management and operating sanitation equipment.

At a celebration on March 28, in honor of her Employee of the Month Award, Joseph Adiletta, DKH President and CEO said, “Deb has an infectious attitude that permeates joy, enthusiasm and fun, and that comes across to people here at the hospital in all that she does. It goes a long way in helping people enjoy their days here, and has had a tremendous benefit on our patients, coworkers and the community. People truly enjoy being around Deb and it shows.”
