About Our Speaker

 

Debbie Maurer started at Good Samaritan Hospital in 1989 as a part-time volunteer coordinator. It took almost six

months for them to realize they needed her full-time to work with their busy volunteer operation.

 

One of her first assignments was to develop confidentiality statements, policies and procedures, and all duty

descriptions. She continues to manage these processes, but now she manages all written presentations, orientation

documents, testing, and preparing for JCAHO.

 

When she is wearing her program development coordinator hat, Debbie develops new programs with neighboring

schools, organizations, business, and faith-based groups.

 

Debbie holds a B.S. Edu. from Wright State University and a B.A. from Ohio University. She started her career in

the Dayton area as an English teacher specializing in Reading.

 

In her spare time, Debbie volunteers with the Grassroots Campaign for Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation and

the local chapter, annual walk and Spring black tie event. She is a Host (or reading) volunteer for first and second

graders, and enjoys making costumes for the music department for Newton Local Schools in Pleasant Hill, Ohio.
