SECAState Employee Combined Appeal

Our hospital's annual SECA (state Employees Combined Appeal)Campaign was kicked off as the "Pheno~emal Fourteen" (your friendlyhospital solicitors) met on September 25th to set a goal of raising$. 7500.00 for this year's campaign.

If you recall from previous years, SECA is the once-a-yearfund-raising campaign among commonwealth employees to support fourgreat people-helping groups: National Health Agencies (i.e. Ameri­can Cancer Society, American Heart Association; etc),PennsylvaniaUnited Ways, United Negro College Fund, and International ServiceAgencies (i.e. Save the Children Federation, Project HOPE, etc.).

A highlight of this year's campaign is that the Pheno~emal

Fourteen are being drive to greater heights by Betty Albrecht andKessey Cummings. Betty has promised to train Kessey in variouswa..YS of taking an old, tired state employee and turning hlin intoa "Super Solicitor'" S:J when you I re visited by one of the PhenomenalFourteen, please have mercy on the poor soul and make a generouspledge via payroll deduction to this year's campaign.

SEPTEMBER 1980EDITORIAL BOARD

, Effective immediately, the testing pro­gram for Aide Trainee/Psychiatric Aide 1 hasbeen drastically altered. The Es~chia~ric

Aide_l test will no longer be administered andall new Aide employes will be hired in the AideTrai~ee class,

The Aid~ 1rainee exam ~lll no longer begiven every other month nor follow its tradi­tional format. Instead, the exam ~lll beavailable only when we find it is necessaryto add names to the existing civil servicelistings. The testing fOrmat will consist oftelevision presentations depicting worksitesituations. The applicant will view the pre­sentation and then answer questions relatingto what they have observed. The testing willcontinue to be given at A.S.H. Dates thatapplications will be accepted shall be adver­tised.

Civil service lists containing names ofapplicants from the new testing format shallnot be used for employment until exLstinglists are exhausted. Consequently, our pre­sent forecast is that'testing for Aide Traineewill not commence for approximately 5 to 6months.

Due to the volume of names available forother Aide 1 ~ositions (Act. Aide 1, OT Aide 1,Rec. Aide 1, etc.), this testing program willalso be administered on a need basis. As inthe Trainee testing, we will advertise whenapplications are being accepted.

Individuals who have submitted applica­tions and are currently awaiting examination,shall have their applications returned andadvised as to the new testing system.

Please note that these changes concernonly the Aide Trainee and other various Aidetesting programs. All other civil serviceapplications/testing programs remain unchanged.

By Northeastern Regional Office (NERO)directive, Leave Without Pay requests can onlybe locally approved for reasons of childbirth,sickness or military. Other LWOP requests canbe granted but only for unusual circumstancesand only after justification has been fOrYlardedto NERO for approval. ASH Bulletin No. 1931offers guidance for submitting LWOP requests.If any questions persist after consulting theBulletin, please contact the Personnel Office.

A Poem by Fran Black, EL1-2

Baking, cooking, at the potseasonings what Ardles' gotthat makes folks start to drool.She's a good worker and nobody's fool.

Whitcher keeps the place real clean,Sores are treated,she stays slim and lean.She's organized and keeps them wellbut when angry can give you he--.

Jo Ann's perceptive"Bright" can see at a glancewhat's happening everywhereand who's got wet pants.She's got eyes in back of her headand if looks could kill you couldsometimes be dead.

Reichert's ready for "honey" to Popso she's not in the runningcause then she would drop -and Newsons been out -her back and her carhave kept her away of the contest so far.

Anthony's quiet and does her work wellshe keeps motors running is sharp asa bell,about incontinence and being on time ­she knows what's going on and cansolve any crime.

Then there's Jenny, a real pretty galwarm and friendly and to the men a real pal.Jenny is kind and has nice things to sayloves nature and art and goes out every daywith the guys - she'll plant flowersthen watches them growtill bunnies start hoppinand rain doesn't flow.The leaves are now dyingbut what a great try -Next summer will find a stalk hi in the sky.

Mary Lou's a great charge with mating onher mindtwixt pups and her colt she's one of a kindKnows I mix up my day and my niteso checks on my charts to make sure thatI'm right.

Frances' in charge of 1st Nationalbankstakes 'care of the coffee with nevera thanksin fact half the time she asks us topaybut we always retort with "waittill next payday".Her drawers are stashed with goodsI don't seefor she locks them all up and I don'thave the key -the day that I'm handed a key witha song,I'll know that time I finally belong.

Dr. Cheng would say "what to do,what to do?"Who to vote for on EL 1 and 2 -For most worthy employee, star overhere.Why not the whole cast for best showof the year -

the expression it'sa small world? Read on and judge foryourself.

Making selections from the oversized menucan be a pleasantly frustrating experience.After much difficulty and indecision, 1selected melon with proscuitto, fettucinialfredo and lasagna. My companion enjoyedsalad, pasta with meat sauce and chickencacciatore. The food was delicious! Wealso sampled some of the delicious bugiewhile waiting for our dessert to arrive.Although we were clearly suffering at thispoint - we agreed that we would be lettingour readers down if we neglected to sampleat least one of the many fabulous desserts.We split an order of cannoli (fabulous) andenjoyed Irish coffee.Service is adequate and sufficient time ispermitted between courses. Don't plan tospend less than 2 - 3 hours for dinner.Reservations are recommended but not nec­essary, if you don't mind waiting.
