Employee Recognition at Triboro
Recently, Triboro Center on Teller Avenue in the Bronx announced that housekeeper Ruel Creightney has been named the July 2021 Employee of the Month.
Leadership at Triboro Center noticed Creightney’s 33 years of compassion, dedication and commitment to the residents and their families at the 405-bed nursing and rehabilitation facility.
"He’s a pure leader, no bones about it," said Rose Ferreira, recreation director. "People underestimate how hard Ruel and his team work, especially during COVID. Ruel is extremely unselfish and he knows it’s a full team effort that gets the job done."
Creightney started at the facility, once known as Daughters-of-Jacob, on Oct. 17, 1988, when he was in his early 20’s.

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:
