St. Catherine of Siena Announces New Foundation Director of Volunteers

The promotion was made internally.

St. Catherine of Siena Medical Center has announced the promotion of one of its employees to the position of Assistant Director of the Foundation/Director of Volunteers.

Heather Reynolds, who has more than 29 years in the health care industry, in her new position is responsible for recruitment in volunteer programs at the hospital as well as the nursing and rehabilitation care center, and assisting the director of St. Catherine’s Foundation with fundraising initiatives.

Since 2001, Reynolds was the Director of Therapeutic Recreation/Volunteer Services Coordinator at the St. Catherine of Siena Nursing and Rehabilitation Care Center. She also coordinated a partnership with the Smithtown Industry Advisory Board, which created a Healthcare Career Exploration and Internship Program, and has assisted the Smithtown Central School District with its Business Olympics. 

“The addition of Heather Reynolds as the Assistant Director of the Foundation and the Director of Volunteers will allow the Foundation greater outreach into the community that St. Catherine serves," said Director of St. Catherine’s Foundation Joy Schneider. "Heather is dedicated to expanding the volunteer program that she started at the nursing home to the entire campus, and to increasing the opportunities available at the hospital to volunteers of all ages – from high school student to retirees.”

How, in a period of rapidly declining enrollment, can costs be increasing so much from year to year,Read More you ask? The answer is in front of you in black and white. I urge you to READ your district’s budget: we are funding retirements when many of us cannot afford to fund our own during difficult economic times. These wheels were set in motion by contracts negotiated in times of unrealistic growth that may likely not occur again. It is time to open up these plans and relieve this unfair burden from our shoulders. Whatever other measures are pursued in order to control costs, including consolidation within and eventually with other districts, are never going to be enough if you cannot get this problem corrected. Write your congressman, for the love of God. If you need any more incentive to do so, please go to http://rocdocs.democratandchronicle.com/database/teacher-pensions-new-york and look at what Smithtown’s retirees are collecting MONTHLY. It will sicken you.
