Get to Know our Staff: Jason Sawa, Inpatient Nursing Unit
What is your job title/your role at Scottish Rite for Children?
I am in the inpatient care coordinator.
What do you do on a daily basis or what sort of duties do you have at work?
I ensure the needs of the patient and family are met during their inpatient stay and at discharge. I meet with patient families upon admission to discuss their plan of care and expected discharge needs. I'm one part of an extraordinary team that helps our families have a great experience while staying with us as an inpatient and that they are set up for success when they are ready to go home.
What was your first job? How long have you worked here?
My first job was at KFC, and I’ve been at Scottish Rite since 2004.
What makes Scottish Rite such a special place to work?
I love seeing how the kiddos progress with the treatments they receive here. I also think it takes a wonderful group of people to keep Scottish Rite special, so I think my co-workers are invaluable.
What would your dream job be if you were not in the medical field?
I would love to be a pilot and travel the world.
Where is the most interesting place you’ve been?
My favorite place to vacation is any place that has sunshine and a beach.
What is your favorite game or sport to watch and play?
My favorite team is the six-time Super Bowl Champions Pittsburgh Steelers.
What’s one fun fact about yourself?
I love buying new release items – from shoes to vinyl records to seeing a movie the night it premieres.
