Employee of the Month for June!

Alyssa joined Canyon in May 2023 as the Hospice Volunteer Coordinator, and since then, she has made an extraordinary impact. In just over a year, she has built what many consider to be the flagship volunteer program within our entire company. Through her dedication, leadership, and heartfelt approach, Alyssa has more than tripled the number of active volunteers—bringing invaluable comfort, companionship, and support to our patients and their families.

Her understanding of hospice care and the unique role volunteers play is remarkable. Alyssa not only ensures our current needs are met—she often has a surplus of enthusiastic, well-prepared volunteers ready to step in. She has also improved the onboarding process, creating thoughtful tools like a QR-coded pamphlet to help prospective volunteers easily find opportunities and join our team.

As Amy, our Branch Director, shared: “She exemplifies the compassion and hardworking character that represents Canyon the way we should be represented.”

Alyssa’s kindness, creativity, and drive reflect the very best of what Canyon stands for. We are so grateful to have her on our team.
