From the Dietary Department to Executive Leader: Shannon Proulx’s Dedication to Teamwork and Success at RiverView Health

Teamwork is crucial for the success of any organization, be it a business, community or civilization. Vince Lombardi’s famous quote underscores the importance of individual commitment to a group effort. Shannon Proulx, an LPN in RiverView Health’s Internal Medicine Department, embodies this principle through her dedication to teamwork. Along with Dr. Bosun Fashoro, Shannon plays a vital role in running one of RiverView’s busiest practices with ease, earning her the Employee of the Month award for May.

Shannon’s journey at RiverView began during her high school years when she worked in the dietary department while also holding a position at the Villa. After becoming an LPN, she spent five years at Glenmore Recovery (now RiverView Recovery Center) before transitioning to her current role at RiverView’s Crookston Clinic. Despite her clinic responsibilities, Shannon continued working weekends at Glenmore for a few more years. Her commitment to her work is evident in her dedication to both roles.

As a native of Crookston, Shannon shares her life with her significant other, Nate Magsam, and their blended family, which includes Katelyn, Kamryn, Ethan, his wife Nissa, and their son Cullen, and Kailee, along with their dog, Nelly. In her free time, Shannon enjoys activities such as ice fishing, running and spending time at their cabin on Island Lake where she fulfills her dream of living on a lake full-time.
