The Career Eras Tour
Celebrating our Colleagues’ Career Journey
Many Southcoast Health colleagues have experienced different “eras” in their careers — growing, evolving, and taking on new roles. Inspired by a certain global tour, we’re launching the Southcoast Health Eras Tour to spotlight employees who’ve thrived and contributed in meaningful ways. Stay tuned as we celebrate their journeys!
Cheryl Sylvia: A Rewarding Career Powered by a Thirst for Knowledge
Meet Cheryl Sylvia. Given her 30-year career at Southcoast Health, it’s hard to believe that her career journey didn’t begin in healthcare. In fact, Cheryl first worked in the insurance industry. It wasn’t until her own hospital stay that she was inspired to begin her next era – as a phlebotomist at St. Luke’s Hospital. Taking advantage of the ETP program that Southcoast Health offered, Cheryl went back to school to become a Registered Nurse – taking her career to new heights.
Mary Ann Rogers: 55 Years, Countless Eras, One Incredible Legacy
Meet Mary Ann Rogers. With a career spanning over 55 years, it’s no surprise she’s had several different eras while working at Southcoast Health. Beginning in dietary services as a teenager, Mary Ann took on a variety of roles before retiring in IT Project Management in 2018. But her journey didn’t end there. Mary Ann began a new Southcoast Health career era in retirement as a Patient Access Representative.
