We are proud to share that Annette Young, Licensed Practical Nurse of The Chateau at Brooklyn Rehabilitation and Nursing Center, has been chosen as the third 2017-2018 Professional of the Quarter!

Annette Young has been working as an LPN for fourteen years, but she originally began her career in accounting before transitioning to healthcare. She shared, “I was tired of crunching numbers. I love to help people, I’m a people person. It’s a joy to take care of patients.”

Young is looked at as a major resource in the community, and is happy to be a part of The Chateau team. She shared, “I’m a motivator, for staff and patients. I tell my patients that you’re here to get better, and go home. It’s most rewarding to see someone come in sick and leave better; it makes my day.”

One of her team members shared, “Ms. Young truly exemplifies what it means to be a sincere, caring nurse. Her expertise is extraordinary, and she always patiently explains and cares for her residents as if they were her own family members.”

When she learned of her nomination for Professional of the Year, Young was in shock, stating, “It was so awesome, I was blind-sided! It gives a sense that you’re doing something well, and you’re appreciated. We all work together; The Chateau is tight-knit, and feels like family.”

Young is the third of four professional of the quarters, who will then be in the running for the 2018 CareRite Centers Professional of the Year.

Annette Young, you are #TheCareRiteDifference!
