RBJH staff wants to wish a heartfelt farewell to Sarah Quinata, activities assistant, as she begins her career working in the geriatric field. Sarah moved to Nebraska from Connecticut to go to school at the UNO Department of Gerontology. She came to RBJH as a volunteer and soon was hired for a few hours to assist with Opening Minds through Art last spring. This past fall, she was our UNO Geriatic intern and kept working this semester assisting the activity staff wherever needed. Wishing Sarah success, contentment, and satisfaction at your new job.
