Jena Langford, team leader Hospice House/IPU with Ohio’s Hospice of Dayton, was recognized with the Tulip Award for her leadership and hard work. Outstanding members of the Ohio’s Hospice staff are recognized every quarter with the Bouquet of Recognition Awards for going above and beyond in advocating for and serving hospice patients and families.

Milli Jefferson, excellence educator with Ohio’s Hospice, nominated Jena for the award. “Jena is a true example of the Bouquet of Recognition,” Milli wrote in the nomination form. “She started as a personal care specialist, then became an LPN, and then an RN. At each level, she has excelled.”

Now in a leadership role, Jena leads by example with hard work. Her commitment to her team is commendable. In addition, Jena leads the Nursing Honor Guard, which honors nurses who are in hospice care with Ohio’s Hospice. “She goes above and beyond to ensure all nurses are honored at the end of their lives,” Milli said. “Thank you, Jena, for leading by example with a smile.”

Congratulations to Jena on being recognized with the Tulip Award and thanks to her for her support of the mission of Ohio’s Hospice.
