We're proud to announce our latest BEE Award winner, Jenny Maldonaldo from NMC Rehab.
Her nomination was written by a patient:
"Jenny has gone far above and beyond for me during my stay here, from bringing me drinks, ice, extra blankets, etc. She has shown me a very caring spirit. Her concern for my well-being is sincere. She came to my bedside while my RN was removing my stitches from bilateral knee replacement, she let me squeeze her hand and she showed me pictures of her pets and talked calmly to me to distract me from my anxiety. I hope she continues her studies because I believe she would make one of the best nurses out there! Don’t let her go!"
We agree! Thank you Jenny for exemplifying the heart of a DCH caregiver.
BEE stands for Being Exceptional Everyday. This award recognizes extraordinary service from our non-nursing staff. Any employee from any department (except RNs) can be nominated for the BEE Award. RNs are recognized for exceptional service with The DAISY Award.
BEE Award nominations will be accepted from patients, patients’ family members, physicians, DCH employees and volunteers. If you’ve experienced or witnessed extraordinary service from a DCH team member, then nominate that person for the BEE Award.
