During 2023 Stroke Awareness Month, UConn Health’s Stroke Center encouraged colleagues to wear pink on Wednesdays to help raise awareness about stroke, its symptoms, and modifiable risk factors.
Dr. Jennifer Baldwin, Dr. Enrique Ballesteros, nurse practitioner Marina Creed, nurse Angela Ferrer, Dr. Eric Mortensen, and nurse Sara Roberts take center court at the UConn women’s basketball game Jan. 15, cheered by the XL Center crowd in acknowledgement of their work as health care heroes.
See how some of our clinics and floors are staying upbeat and drawing strength from each other, determined to keep us all a step ahead of the coronavirus!

Congratulations to this year’s recipient of the Dr. Peter J. Deckers Employee Appreciation Award: Jim Behme, simulation center coordinator! Jim was chosen among six worthy finalists who were celebrated for their exemplary contributions to UConn Health.
We also honored 508 colleagues who celebrated service milestones of 5, 10, 15, and 20 years. The ceremony was attended by a standing room of friends and colleagues. If you missed the ceremony, you can still catch it on MediaSite. UConn Health encourages employee recognition at all levels and provides and offers various ways you can recognize a colleague.
