like our rubella outbreak two years ago, she doesn't just sit back and wait
to hear from us, she's an integral part of the public health team, doing
whatever it takes to get the job done."
Janet Henley, RN, Nursing Supervisor

to let the people around her do innovative programming while she remains
accessible for advice….. This relaxation of control creates a confidence
among staff and encourages creativity."

were handled with the utmost in professional skill and integrity."

"Having served for six years
as a Board of health member, I can honestly say that MiMi was and continues
to be a superior Health Director. MiMi has a penchant for problem solving
and takes a firm stand on public health issues at the state level as well
as the local level. She has a very pleasing personality, is well liked and
highly respected by her staff, her peers and the community".

public health administrator. She is hard working and innovative. She continues
to be excellent to work with. MiMi is always ready to take a call from a
physician and help as necessary. She has done an outstanding job supervising

and obviously cares about doing a good job."
