Congratulations Melanie Clibon, RN/Weekend Supervisor, our Quest for Excellence winner for 2025! We are looking forward to honoring this year's outstanding Quest Winners at the banquet on November 13 at the Marriott in Indianapolis.
Heritage Park is delighted to announce Melanie Clibon, RN, Weekend Supervisor, as our 2025 Quest for Excellence recipient. Mel has been demonstrating our CARE values long before we even began using the acronym.
Becoming a CNA was the foundation Mel chose to begin her journey in healthcare. While Heritage Park was not where her journey started, we can thank a competitor for not accommodating her school schedule as she pursued her nursing degree. Mel went on to earn her BSN, and during her 20+ years at Heritage Park, she has overseen many facets of nursing, including roles as Charge Nurse, Wound Nurse, ADNS, and DNS.In addition, when asked to become a CNA and QMA instructor, she readily agreed. Mel’s contributions to the success of Heritage Park are immeasurable.
Having someone like Mel on the team is a godsend. She is always up for a challenge, ready to address issues, and committed to finding solutions. And when asked to portray the Statue of Liberty in our Flag Day parade, she did so willingly, with spirit and humor! In her current role as weekend supervisor, she is dependable, personable, and respectful of all she encounters.
In her spare time, Mel enjoys spending time with her family and any outdoor activities such as camping, hiking, and kayaking.
Mel’s quote for us is, “Investing in yourself can be an amazing gift to others.” She certainly lives this out at Heritage Park, and both our residents and staff benefit from her dedication every day.
