Congratulations go to Jeanette Brown, operational service manager, north-east sector and specialist children’s health services unit, Houldsworth Centre, Wishaw who recently retired after 30 years’ service.
In October 1992, Jeanette joined NHS Lanarkshire as a higher clerical officer based at Strathaven health centre before moving to Beckford Lodge in October 1993.
In September 1999, Jeanette became an administrator with the ending violence and aggression (EVA) service at the former Strathclyde Hospital in Motherwell.
It was in June 2001 when Jeanette first took up the role of operational service manager when she joined the paediatric service. She also took up this role with Wishaw locality and children’s service; north-east unit and hosted services; Bellshill/Motherwell/Wishaw locality and hosted services and, finally, with north-east sector and specialist children’s health services unit where she remained until her retirement.
In her spare time, Jeanette enjoys reading and spending time with her family. She is looking forward to more holidays when her husband Gordon retires in July.
Sharon Simpson, health and social work manager, said: “I’d like to pay a huge thank you to Jeanette for her 30 years of hard work, motivation and service in NHS Lanarkshire, particularly over the last 11 years within the north-east localities and children’s services.
“We will miss Jeanette for all the support and advice she has provided to us over the years and wish her every happiness in the next phase of life’s journey.”
