Co-Workers Honor Man Who Continuously Brightens Their Day

Tim Rust, Patient Financial Coordinator at UnityPoint Health – St. Luke’s, is known for brightening everyone’s day. That is one of the many reasons why his co-workers teamed up to nominate him for St. Luke’s Employee of the Month for October.

Rust’s co-workers even had his wife Jennifer in a on the surprise. They planned a secret celebration in St. Luke’s main lobby. She hid around the corner smiling from ear to ear. She says he loves his job and she wasn’t surprised when she found out he had won.

“Tim is very dedicated to his work,” adds Jennifer. “He is always early and always working extra hours. He never complains and says he happy doing what he does. I’m very proud of him.”

Rust’s Supervisor, Tracy White, says she couldn’t ask for a better employee.

“Tim is an outstanding employee. He is sincere in his care for patients as well as his team members. He is quite awesome!”

Other team members describe Rust as friendly, helpful, compassionate, positive, supportive, professional, calm and well-respected.

As the St. Luke’s Employee of the Month for October, Rust received a special watch from Greenberg’s Jewelers, his own premium parking space, gift cards to the St. Luke’s Glass Apple Gift Shop, The Parkview Café and a gift certificate to be used at an area restaurant. He will also have the chance to be voted as St. Luke’s Employee of the Year for 2016. That comes with a paid vacation.
