September 2021 Employee of the Month
When Martine Center Recreation Specialist Sandy Joseph found out that she was named Martine Center’s Employee of the Month for September 2021, she nearly cried. Ms. Joseph works so hard in the Recreation Department to keep the residents happy and busy at this 200-bed nursing and rehabilitation facility on Tibbits Avenue in White Plains, nothing gets in her way. What’s more amazing about Sandy is that she’s only been employed at Martine Center since March of this year and to receive such an honor in such a short span in time, has not been seen often. So it shows that she loves her job, as well as her residents and fellow colleagues. Sandy has gone above and beyond for not only the recreation department, but also for our residents and their loved ones, said Nicole Preston, CTRS, CDP, Director of Recreation and Volunteer Services at Martine Center. She prioritizes connecting residents with their families through the virtual and limited visitation programs as this pandemic had resulted to limited communication. What’s more is that Sandy is incredibly creative and loves to ensure that residents have a healthy leisure lifestyle while they reside here. MARTINE CENTER

Care. Support. Positive Outcomes. Centers Health Care.
Centers Health Care provides rehabilitation, skilled nursing and long-term care for people with a wide range of needs. Whether someone is recovering from surgery, managing an illness or simply needs more support than can be provided at home, our staff is there to help.
The goal is not exactly the same for everyone. It may be returning home, becoming stronger, staying independent or simply feeling better and more comfortable from one day to the next. There will be progress, setbacks and difficult days along the way. Our job is to be there through all of it, and to help each patient or resident get as far as he or she can.
Sometimes that progress comes in large steps. More often, it comes in small ones. Either way, every step matters.
Our Steps to Home series follows patients through rehabilitation and the journey from hospital to home:
