Another Super Year at MHRI.

In December, MHRI associates took some time out of their busy schedules to celebrate the successes of 2017 with their fellow associates. These events are also our opportunity to recognize associates with milestone years of service with MedStar Health.

Hosted at three locations by the Associate Engagement Committee, each celebration brought together leadership and associates to recognize pride in our work and pride in our team. Embracing our theme, “MHRI Team Pride”, the collaborative video celebrated our “Research Super Heroes” from across the system. It was a chance to highlight the work of many departments within MHRI who are committed to making a difference through research.

Many thanks to all the associates who assisted with planning, set-up, and clean up at each location. Your efforts made the events a success! Thank you to all the associates who brought a donation for Dr. Bear’s Closest at Children’s National Hospital in Washington, D.C., More than 100 toys were donated to help children and their siblings celebrate this season.

Congratulations to our service award recipients for your years of dedicated service to MedStar. Your work and support allow us to continue our commitment to advancing health in our community.
