Welcome to our issue dedicated to the heroes in health care. We have some great stories from health care related organizations who have made a
significant impact on our community. We will also be celebrating some amazing professionals on Nov. 2 at our Inaugural Health Care Heroes event — made possible by all our sponsors who saw the value in an awards program such as this. And finally, we have a special portion of this issue dedicated to the finalists who are up for the awards.
As I contemplated what these heroes have done to get to this place in their careers, I thought of my oldest brother, Tony Cayton.
Tony is a great example of a health care hero in my book. When Tony was already 30 plus years in a career involving wireless communications and electronics, he decided to pursue his passion for health care. He had developed this love as a volunteer EMT in his early twenties.
Tony was 50 years old when he decided to go back to school and pursue becoming a PA. After a few closed doors, he was able to get into a PA School in Tennessee called Bethel University. By the time Tony graduated PA school, he was 55 years old.
Today, Tony is serving as a PA on a Native American reservation out west. I am extremely proud of the way he has pursued his call to the health care industry.
Even through the hardships of the pandemic and his own open heart surgery and full recovery, he has stood strong and committed to his calling. I dedicate this issue to my health care hero, my brother- Tony Cayton!
God bless you and yours,
-Marty Cayton
