Whereas, in preparation for his career, Tim O'Hara graduated in December 2008 from the University of Southern Mississippi Nursing School with a bachelor's degree in nursing. The only male in his class to graduate from the program, Tim next furthered his education and expertise in the field by working in the specialties of orthopedics and intensive care units in both Mississippi and South Carolina. In addition, he acquired certification in advanced critical life-support skills, progressive care certified nursing, and peritoneal dialysis therapies; and
Whereas, Tim has been practicing as a nurse for fifteen years, the past eight of those years exclusively at Lexington Medical Center, where he has been promoted to the supervisory role of clinical coordinator of the Intermediate ICU floor; and
Whereas, Tim officially will be recognized as an LMC Gold Award recipient at a special evening of celebration with colleagues, family, and friends on March 28, 2023; and
Whereas, grateful for his example of dedication and excellence in the high profession of nursing, the House takes great pleasure in saluting Tim O'Hara on receiving an LMC Gold Award. Now, therefore,
Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:
That the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives, by this resolution, honor and congratulate Timothy "Tim" O'Hara, R.N., of Lexington County on being selected to receive Lexington Medical Center's coveted LMC Gold Award for 2023 and thank him for his many years of outstanding service in his profession.
