We are considering implementing "volunteer of the quarter" here at Pelham Medical Center, Greer, SC. If you do this type of recognition in your program would you share the criteria used to determine what volunteer gets the recognition? Thanks in advance! Charlene 

At our annual Volunteer Service Awards Banquet, we recognize a Volunteer Service Champion.  This will be our 4th year for this program.  Here is the criteria we put on a form and send to our Management Team.  We also allow our Auxiliary Board members to submit nominations.  Many of the Aux. Board are service area chairmen.  The volunteer is presented with a special pin and also an engraved clock.  It has worked so far for us and no one knows who the person is until it is announced at the banquet that evening.  It is very exciting for the recipient and very humbling!
