The administration of SCI Albion awarded Amy Young, clerk typist 2, the "Albion Key Award" on Feb. 26. This key is utilized to award an employee for their excellent work ethic, character and demeanor, both inside the institution and out. It recognizes someone's outstanding acts or achievements in our community in many different aspects such as acts of kindness, heroism or just being a positive role model to others.
On Dec. 19, 2018, Amy Young came upon her brother-in-law, lying on the floor in his residence. Qualified as an EMT, Amy quickly assessed that he was not breathing and was already turning blue. Unable to find a pulse, she called emergency medical services and began CPR. She was able to revive her brother-in-law prior to arrival of EMS and he was transported to Cleveland Clinic where he was diagnosed with a stroke. He was recently released from the hospital, and Amy continues to assist with his recovery at home. Not only has Amy immediately become an outstanding employee for this facility, but her heroic efforts on that day involving her brother-in-law exemplify what the Albion Key Award stands for. Congratulations!
