Introduction

The Judy Hamod Scholarship program is being initiated to encourage staff to consider furthering their education.  With educational advancement, staff would have the opportunity for promotion within Mount St. Rita Health Centre to positions requiring college or graduate school education, certifications, and/or licensure.  Completion of studies will benefit both the Mount and the individual as dedicated, compassionate staff is promoted as the result of learning new skills.

Background

Judy Hamod was a 20-year, highly valued member of the Mount St. Rita staff.  She served as a unit charge nurse, supervisor, and assistant director of nursing.  She was known as being an advocate for all residents, a highly competent registered nurse, and an exceedingly compassionate woman.  Judy was passionate about her work, her family, and her God.

Judy Hamod spent the last weeks of her life as a resident of Mount St. Rita.  As her life came to a close much too soon, she reaped the rewards of her work training staff to be compassionate and caring.  Her husband, George Hamod, in appreciation for the care she received while a resident, has committed funds that will serve as the initial corpus of a scholarship fund that will memorialize his wife, recognize Judy’s commitment to educational advancement, and honor the staff who compassionately cared for Judy and who continue to meet the needs of the patients and residents at Mount St. Rita.

The Judy Hamod Scholarship program is being initiated to encourage staff to consider furthering their education in nursing and other areas of health care.   Preference will be given to nursing students in recognition of Judy’s longstanding dedication to the profession.  Educational advancement will benefit both the Mount and the individual with new and enhanced skills.

Individuals or groups wishing to add to the corpus of the scholarship fund may contact Deborah Beards at 401-333-6352 extension 11.
