MELVILLE, N.Y., November 6, 2020 – Henry Schein, Inc. (Nasdaq: HSIC) joined the American Association of Dental Office Management (AADOM) to announce that Jenny Brown, Practice Manager of Chattanooga-based East Brainerd Oral Surgery, has been selected as the recipient of AADOM’s eighth annual Green Leader Award. Ms. Brown was presented the award by Lorie Streeter, Vice President, AADOM and Frank Semo, Senior Manager, Practice Services at Henry Schein Dental during a virtual awards ceremony hosted by the association and broadcast live via Facebook.
Made possible by a grant from the Henry Schein Cares Foundation, AADOM created the award as part of its Green Leader Initiative, which aims to empower practice managers to reduce their practices’ environmental footprint and lead their teams in becoming part of dentistry’s green future.
"This year’s green leader’s nomination was very different from years past. The accomplishments of this Green Leader created a path for this person's practice to TRULY be paperless in every sense of the word. From patients to vendors to receivables and payables, our winner basically created a fully electronic option for almost everything in the practice. I can tell you AADOM, it can be done and this year’s Green Leader DID IT!" said Lorie Streeter, Vice President, AADOM.
"On behalf of the entire Henry Schein Dental family I’d like to express my sincerest level of gratitude to both AADOM and all AADOM members. You have all shown an incredible level of leadership, commitment, and vigilance during this ever changing time in dentistry. Although we cannot be together in person, our virtual efforts have sent shockwaves throughout the dental world and I’m truly honored to be a part of the AADOM community. Henry Schein strives to serve our communities and we take seriously our effort to maintain and preserve our environment. The AADOM Green Leader represents our core values and our mission of Doing Well by Doing Good," said Frank Semo, Senior Manager, Practice Services at Henry Schein Dental.
“I am thankful to both AADOM and the Henry Schein Cares Foundation for this wonderful award that recognizes the importance of sustainability within dental practices,” said Ms. Brown. "We waste less paper now and allow the best practices of a fully electronic option to our vendors and our patients. Touchless payments keep the patients' information secure and our employees healthy by minimizing patient contact during over the counter payments."
“We are so thankful for the Henry Schein Cares Foundation and their continued support of this initiative to recognize our members and their efforts to create a more environmentally friendly practice” said Heather Colicchio, Founder, and President, AADOM. “It is important to us at AADOM to highlight the members who exemplify eco-friendly practices in their dental office, and we are so happy to present Ms. Brown with the Green Leader Award.”
AADOM’s mission is to provide its members with resources, education, and networking opportunities to help them achieve the highest level of professional development. It is the nation’s largest educational and networking association dedicated to serving dental practice management professionals, and AADOM fosters companionship and support for dental office managers.
“The Henry Schein Cares Foundation is pleased to join with the AADOM to present Ms. Brown with the eighth annual Green Leader Award,” said Jennifer Kim Field, Executive Director, Henry Schein Cares Foundation. “At Henry Schein, we too encourage sustainable practices, because a healthy environment means a healthier community, and we hope this award inspires Ms. Brown’s colleagues to follow in her example.”
