Unity Health associates recently selected Joy Lynn Edwards as the Associate of the Quarter for the third quarter of 2016. She has been with Unity Health for more than 35 years and works as a clinical laboratory specialist at Unity Health’s White County Medical Center campus.

Attributes of the Associate of the Quarter include high values, a positive attitude and sense of professionalism. Edwards reflects the core values of the hospital: integrity, teamwork, compassion, excellence, stewardship, innovation and a heart of service.
