Going the extra mile.

Submitted by akcrabtree on

On Monday night Trey Gaylor, a Radiation Therapist at the Cancer Center went above and beyond for a patient in distress. At the end of our shift, around 11pm, we discovered that one of our patients had a flat tire. They were planning on waiting over an hour for Triple A, then they were going to have over an hour drive home. Trey decided instead of making her wait, he would change her tire for her. She was so grateful.

Our patient had the biggest smile on her face and you could tell that Alexis just made her day very happy.

Submitted by elassenat on

Even though I'm always proud of her, I want to give an extra proud shout out to Hayley Assenat, Clinical Associate on 7M PCU for creating and implementing the idea of a library for patients and families on her unit. Hayley reached out to her co-workers and her own family to donate books for the unit library. She has accumulated about 40 books so far. Patients and families can review the book summaries that Hayley developed and choose a book they are interested in.  Based on our Infection Control policy, the books cannot be returned, so the books are the patients/families to keep.

On Becky's day off, she heard that her laboring patient from the day before had to have a C-section. She went to visit the patient that had been placed in ICU and found out that the patient had not had any bonding time with her baby. As a result, Becky came into work and clocked in so she could take the baby to visit her parents. Becky demonstrates her love and compassion all the time for her patients, but this one was special. We appreciate her leadership in L&D as a CTL and the care she gives her patients each and every day.
