Shirley Pridgen to Retire After 40 Years at NHRMC
Please join the Inpatient Surgery Unit to celebrate the retirement of Ms. Shirley Pridgen! The ceremony will be held 11 a.m.-1 p.m. Monday, June 24 in the 2nd floor conference room.
Ms. Shirley has been a Health Unit Clerk with NHRMC for 40 years! She started her career in 1979 in Pediatrics, where she stayed for 7 years before transferring to the Adult Inpatient Surgical Unit where she has worked since.
"I have seen so many changes in these past years," Shirley said. "I love seeing people come together as one through teamwork no matter what your title is. We all need each other to make this hospital run effectively."
Upon retirement, Ms. Shirley plans to travel. She will also be focusing on her school work, as she will be graduating with her Masters Degree in Theology from UNC.
