Adapt Recognizes Employees For Longstanding Service During March Event

Adapt Integrated Health Care honored employees for their years of service during a recognition luncheon held March 19, recognizing Q1 2026 honorees whose combined tenure with the organization totals 110 years.

The event brought together staff, leadership and board members to celebrate employees whose long-term service has helped support Adapt’s mission across southwest Oregon.

Stephanie Green, Adapt’s chief of human resources, said the recognition was about both longevity and impact.

“Thank you for choosing Adapt Integrated Health Care,” Green said. “You choose where you want to be, and we are grateful you have chosen to be part of this team. Today is about celebrating you and the incredible impact you have made.”

Green said the group being honored represented a combined 110 years of service and said that level of longevity reflects the strength of the organization and the people behind it.

During the luncheon, Adapt also highlighted the qualities colleagues associate with the honorees through a word cloud featuring terms such as dedication, compassion, commitment, trust and resilience.

Board of Directors President Kelsey Wood said the work done by Adapt employees reaches people who often lack the support and stability others may take for granted.

“Many of those we serve do not have the stability or support that others are fortunate to experience,” Wood said. “You deliver hope by equipping people with the tools they need to move forward.”

CEO Steve Baron said employee retention and long-term commitment speak to the purpose behind the organization’s work.

“It is incredible to have so many people choose to come to this organization, stay here, and build their careers here,” Baron said. “Today, we celebrate more than years of service. We celebrate your impact, your compassion, and your commitment to those we serve.”

The recognition also comes as Adapt marks another workplace milestone. The organization said it was recently named a Great Place to Work for the third consecutive year, with 86% of employees saying it is a great place to work.

Adapt said the luncheon served as a reminder that each service milestone reflects years of care, perseverance and connection - qualities the organization says continue to shape its work throughout the region.
