PUTNAM, CONN. – Anthony Osborn, RN, has been named employee of the month for May at Day Kimball Healthcare (DKH). He is a diagnostic imaging registered nurse at Day Kimball Hospital, which is part of the DKH integrated medical system.
“Anthony is one of the most caring, compassionate, and understanding people I know. He has a talent for keeping calm, even in the most stressful situations,” said Sandra Dean, DKH director of diagnostic imaging. “The staff and physicians have the utmost respect for Anthony and his high quality nursing skills. We are very fortunate to have such an outstanding and highly skilled nurse in the Diagnostic Imaging Department.”
Prior to joining DKH in September of 2000, Osborn spent 10 years working as an intensive care unit nurse. In his capacity as a diagnostic imaging nurse, Osborn is responsible for providing quality care in both in-patient and out-patient situations. He serves a wide range of patients, including pediatric, adult, elderly, acutely ill and chronically ill. Job skills include assessment, communication, teaching and leadership, while ensuring patient privacy, dignity and safety.
Upon learning of his award, Osborn said that the recognition was “totally unexpected.”
“I feel that members of the staff at this hospital are all part of a team that works very hard to make each patient who comes through our doors in need of help a top priority,” said Osborn. “To be singled out is a bit difficult for me to wrap my head around, but I am very thankful as it makes me feel that I am doing the right things by my patients and coworkers.”
Osborn, who was born in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia, grew up in Innisfail, Queensland, Australia. Today, he resides in Woodstock with his wife, Christine.
