Show Mario some love! ๐Ÿ‘

Today, we recognize Mario M., Resident Care Attendant with our Kosair for Kids Complex Care Center (KCC).

In just two months with the Home, Mario has made a deep impression on the children in our care and everyone who works alongside him.

He brings genuine empathy and quiet dedication to every interactionโ€”always present, always positive, and consistently putting residents first.

The children admire him, his colleagues count on him, and his influence is felt throughout the unit. We are grateful to celebrate Mario.

Each month, we celebrate team members with a Core Award for their demonstration of our core values:
