Wallace Named BRMC Recruiter

Nellie Wallace has been named the new physician/professional staff recruiter at Bradford Regional Medical Center (BRMC), according to Human Resources Vice President Dennis Geitner. In her new position, Wallace will be responsible for overseeing and coordinating the recruitment of physicians and other professional staff to help BRMC meet the region’s increasing healthcare needs, says Geitner.

“Nellie’s upbeat personality, dedication and previous work experience with the Medical Center, coupled with her involvement in the communities we serve, provides her with the background and knowledge to be effective in her new role,” he says.

“I love working with people and my true hope is to help recruit some strong physicians and staff who will not only benefit the hospital but also the community,” Wallace says.

She replaces Mary Kay Delneky, who recently relocated from the area with her husband, Dr. Peter Delneky.

Wallace previously worked as director of annual giving at Bradford Hospital Foundation, which raises funds for the sole support of BRMC. In this role, she was responsible for coordinating and implementing special events hosted by the Foundation, including the Golf & Sporting Clays Charity Classic, the October FunFest and others throughout the year. She also made presentations to various service clubs, hospital and community audiences and participated in Foundation committees associated with annual giving such as the Memorial and Named Funds Committees, BRMC Employee Ask Committee, Community Relations Committee and telethons.

An announcement regarding staff reorganization at the Foundation will be forthcoming.

Additionally, Wallace served in various capacities for nearly 30 years in BRMC’s laboratory. Her new physician/professional staff recruiting office is located on the fourth floor of BRMC’s Outpatient Services Center. She can be reached at 814-362-8499.

Wallace, an Olean, N.Y., native, holds an associate’s degree in medical technology from Alfred State College, a bachelor of science degree and a master’s degree in business administration with a concentration in finance from St. Bonaventure University. She lives in Bradford with her husband, Wendell. The couple has two sons, Brian and Patrick.
