"Mrs. O'Malley is a shining example of MUSC Health's mission to bring quality healthcare to all," said MUSC Health Florence Division CEO Jay Hinesley. "I believe she is helping us fulfill this mission by establishing an open line of communication and meaningful relationships with those in the community. Together, and with Mrs. O'Malley's help, we are on the right path toward providing access to healthcare to those that need it most."

The award from the Marion County Branch of the NAACP was given to O'Malley for her inspiration to the citizens of the Florence and Marion County communities. The award also stated she has demonstrated herself as a "truly professional, caring community leader."

"It is a pleasure to honor such a phenomenal woman as Mrs. Christina O'Malley for her dedication and faithfulness to the citizens of Marion and Florence Counties," said Marvin Hemingway, President of the Marion County NAACP. "Mrs. O'Malley has demonstrated that she is a professional, caring, loving and sincere worker for all citizens and an asset to MUSC. MUSC is very fortunate to have such a remarkable worker."

The Woman to Woman Conference is a ministry that encourages women to grow in Christ and make a godly impact in their home and community. The certificate was given to O'Malley for her dedication, commitment and valuable contributions to Marion and Florence County citizens.

"I am honored and humbled to have received this award. MUSC Health has a deep commitment to partner with our communities to eliminate disparities and improve access to healthcare," said Christina O'Malley.
