Beverly Resident Earns MelroseWakefield Hospital President's Award

BEVERLY, MA — A Beverly resident was recently honored with the MelroseWakefield Hospital 2025 President's Award for Exemplary Leadership.

Lindsey Sauchuk was one of five honorees recognized at a ceremony held at the hospital during National Hospital Week.

The award was established in 2018 in honor of former MelroseWakefield Hospital President and CEO Alan Macdonald to continue his spirit of leadership after his retirement. The award is given annually to leaders "who strengthen the culture, lift others up and lead not for recognition — but because they care deeply about the people they serve and the work we do together."

"Each of these individuals represents the very best of who we are," said Interim President Bill Wyman. "They lead with heart, build trust and deliver meaningful results. We are proud to recognize their contributions, and even prouder to work alongside them."

2025 President’s Award for Exemplary Leadership Recipients:

• Lindsey Sauchuk – Ultrasound Supervisor, Radiology
• Dianne Koch – Manager, Central Sterile Processing
• Michelle Cox – Senior Manager for Specialty Practices, Tufts Medical Center Community Care
• Melissa O’Connor – Clinical Manager, Emergency Department
• Christen Foy - Director, Service Line Growth Initiative/ Strategic Plan & Business Development
