The Mina Family - Pamela Dino Verano - Hotel Nurse
Pamela Dino Verano - fondly known as "Pam"
To better understand the true essence of the "Mina Effect", you also have to understand the wonderful people that make up the Mina Family...in an effort to bring our associates and guests closer together, the Mina Effect Blog will regularly feature snapshots of these special people.
- My hotel nursing experience blossomed when I joined the Jebel Ali Hotel Golf Resort & Spa. I was awarded as employee of the month in the year and was proclaimed employee of the year 2000. I was also given the “Miss Jebel Ali Smile,” an award made for me by the management & staff of the hotel.
- In June 2002, I came to join the Mina as the Hotel Nurse. I serve my external customers, the hotel guests, and the internal customers, my “Mina family”, whom I really treasure a lot. The Mina team is a bunch of happy and caring people. It is a place where everyone is groomed for development. Our Human Resources ensures that we are up to date with trainings: be it skills, or knowledge advancement. I believe that the longer one stays in the Mina, the more learned service associate he will become. No wonder most of the pre-opening associates are still with us! With the best management team, who makes us feel that we really count in the organization, what more can we ask for? Indeed, they are always there for whatever assistance one would ever have…. no one is left out unnoticed. Thanks to the leadership of Mr. Saeed and Mr. Scully, it’s like “ a home away from home,” the best "Mina effect" an associate could get from this marvelous place!
- Backed by the whole HR team led by Ms. Claire and Mr. Tarek, I was awarded as employee of the month in August 2003 and eventually put me as first runner up for the employee of the year in February 2004.
- The Mina has helped me keep my family stronger together. My husband, Allan, joined the team in 2006. My children, Allen Paul and Anna Pauline are with us as well. Indeed, I feel at home at the Mina. Though I miss my parents in the Philippines, I could always bring them for a visit to experience Dubai and the wonderful place I am working right now!
If you are looking for a place where you can Work, Grow, and be Happy, the Mina is the place to be! Come and join “the Mina Team” and do not be left out wondering, “what is the Mina effect?””
