St. Rita's Employee Legends

Dick McCrateDick McCrate has been described as a role model, father figure, and even a candidate for "cloning" as a perfect staff member.

His Excellence is apparent. A gentle and considerate man, he his often praised for his patience in training students and new employees and his willingness to do whatever needs to be done …from vacuuming the waiting room to finding films to stepping in on a particularly difficult case.

His Compassion is one of the Core Values for which he is best known especially in dealing with patients. One example concerned a patient who was being prepared for a lumbar puncture. As the patient was getting into the position, all bodily function control was lost. Dick immediately took control of the situation, restoring the patient with special attention to Human Dignity. The patient was made to feel completely comfortable, as if the embarrassing event never took place.

Our Core Value of Justice is at work each time he re-arranges or personally works for another employee who has a special occasion or personal need.

Dick also personally sees that no students or employees go unescorted to their cars at the end of their shifts… and personally makes fresh coffee for his second shift staff every day!

We are proud to name Dick McCrate, a Legend of St. Rita's.
