DSP Award Recipient - Cheryl Reed
The Portage County Board of Developmental Disabilities is proud to recognize Cheryl Reed as the Portage DD Direct Support Professional (DSP) Award Recipient for December 2022. Cheryl is an Independent Provider and was nominated by Portage DD SSA Cynthia Saunders.
Here is what Cindy had to say about Cheryl:
Cheryl has been working with a client with intense medical issues who is also resistant to needed services. Cheryl has been nothing but flexible with her time, schedule, and resources. Cheryl has been the main source for completing medical appointments, obtaining meds, ensuring daily medical needs are met, and even providing a home for the individual. The client and I would be lost without Cheryl!
The Direct Support Professional (DSP) of the Month Award is for those staff who provide direct support or direct services for individuals served throughout Portage County.
This award is an opportunity to nominate someone who has gone above and beyond to improve the lives of individuals with developmental disabilities while also promoting independence and inclusion.
Individual award recipients will receive public recognition from Portage DD and be promoted on our social media channels. Award recipients will also later be considered for Direct Support Professional of the Year.
All nominations will be kept on file for review and consideration for a period of 12 months after initial submission.
