Teirra Harris receives employee honor at Mon Health Stonewall Jackson Memorial Hospital

Teirra Harris

WESTON, WV – Teirra Harris, Registration Representative, has been selected as the Mon Health Stonewall Jackson Memorial Hospital ICARE Champion of the Month for February 2023. Teirra began her employment at the hospital nearly two years ago.

Nominations for the monthly honor are based on the Mon Health System ICARE Values, which stands for Integrity, Commitment, Accountability, Respect, and Excellence.

Teirra’s nominator wrote, “Teirra is always pleasant and kind, she tries to spread joy to whoever is in her presence, employee or patient. Teirra is a dream coworker, she takes on additional responsibilities with a smile, she remembers everyone’s birthday, anniversary, and kids’ birthday. I have met few people who share her selflessness and work ethic. She is one of our hidden gems and absolutely deserves to be employee of the month.”

Teirra enjoys cookouts, fishing, reading, and spending time with her close friends and family, including her children, boyfriend, pets, and grandparents. She also enjoys watching her kids play baseball.

“My favorite thing about working at Mon Health is the people. From my coworkers to the patients, all of them have become like family to me.” To learn more about Mon Health Stonewall Jackson Memorial Hospital, visit MonHealth.com.
