Congratulations to Kelly Epperly, RN, Nurse Navigator, at CNRV!

Kelly received the Vision Award for displaying compassion and care to a patient and their family. She upheld our core values by demonstrating Collaboration, Commitment, and Compassion.

This is just one example of the impact she leaves daily in our community and our Imaging team. Her passion for our patients' health is appreciated every day.

Thank you Kelly!

Courtney Cherry goes above and beyond in her role as a tech on R3. She consistently advocates for each patient, providing distinguished professional care, while also being personal and intentional with each patient. Courtney is beloved by all patients, especially on the adolescent unit. We are blessed with her empathetic impact, and I truly believe she is the perfect representation of compassionate care. Courtney is also excellent in high crisis situations, and is always willing to jump in and volunteer for every situation, regardless of the task.

Randi Glover on MCU is such a hard worker and takes the best care of her patients! She is so sweet even if they're being awful to her. 

Mark Groseclose on MCU goes above and beyond for his patients every single day. He even keeps things they might need in his locker so he can make them comfortable and happy.

One of our nurses went out to get lunch on her break and her car broke down on her way back.  Kristie went out and picked her up and brought her back to work. Thanks Kristie for helping out your teammates with whatever they need!!

I was a POA on 7S ICU and the RN  Andra  Fridley is such a compassion person not only to the Patient but also to me . She went out of her way to come and check on me as well as the patient. I am so gratful we have nurses like her

It's not just dedication, it's compassion and caring!  A quick response is what is needed during all urgent situations, including when a "code urgent" is called. It is nice to know that my co-worker (Kelly Robertson) here in Ortho Spine is one who always responds no matter where the call is initiated. 

Thank you Kelly for being so compassionate and caring in all that you do! 

Today, Velocity Care Salem received a hand written, mailed letter from a patient that visited earlier in the month. The patient's letter stated (with all patient identifiers removed):

"My name is ___. I am writing to inform you of the care I received at your facility last week. The nurse, Alex had to spend a lot of time with me with completing "a procedure". Alex, the nurse, was professional, caring, and patient. He took the time to answer all my questions. This has been the best medical experience I have had in a long time. Sincerely, _____".

I received this note from a very appreciative physician:
