Thanks to Scott Kendrick and the CNRV TSG guys for making the cardiovascular transition to the 2nd floor MOB nice and smooth. Scott had a detailed plan for the movement of each machine and computer and TSG was able to transfer all computers and lines quickly and efficiently. They all worked together to provide an transition for all staff involved in the move. I appreciate all of you!

Kelli Robtison is an Accreditation Facilitator who has dedicated herself to learning and implementing Tracers with AMP, our new Joint Commission survey readiness platform. She has collaborated with leaders throughout the system and has acted as a technical support liaison helping users become comfortable with the product. Kelli has responded to obstacles presented throughout the implementation with patience and determination. I am so thankful for all she does for our team and the organization.
Every interaction that I have had with Dr. Price has been a pleasant one, since I first met him on 8 MPCU. He truly cares for his patients and respects their nurses. When I need to text page him about a patient his responses are always timely and his pleasantness shines through. In these stressful times tensions are high but Dr. Price never displays frustration in his interactions with staff. Dr. Price and his commitment to our patients is very much noticed and appreciated! Thank You so much for always being a pleasure to work with!

Kimberly came to us as a new grad, but you wouldn't be able to tell! Kimberly has continued to go over and above with her patients, and she is always willing to lend a hand to other staff when they need help. Recently Kimberly switched her schedules to cover call outs which is not new for her - she is always willing to help out her team when they are in a pinch!
Dr. Salters never fails to treat us CT staff with respect and courtesy! He understands that we are stretched thin on 3rd shift, and on Monday night, he dressed in full PPE to transport a patient to and from our CT room because nursing was unable to. Also nursing was unable to place a usable IV in this patient's arm and upon communicating this to him, he made sure to expedite the process to make sure this patient got the necessary scans. He always upholds great standards for staff teamwork and patient care and deserves all the recognition in the world! We appreciate you so much Dr.
Dr. Robert Salters in the Emergency Department deserves an overwhelming thank you from the 3rd shift team in CT for going above and beyond for a patient in need! This patient was in desperate need of a CT to help determine their treatment plan and the patient claimed to have been a "hard stick"--the IV that had been placed upon arrival was unfortunately not appropriate for the CT exam. Dr.
Ashley Brown in resource pool has been an awesome team member and super helpful and is very easy to work with. Thanks for all you do!
