Hamilton Health Care System recently presented the Heart of Hamilton Award to associates for acts that exceeded performance expectations.
“It’s great to be a part of an organization where our associates consistently provide excellent care for patients and family members and each other,” said Brandon Burge, Heart of Hamilton committee chair. “When associates go above and beyond to make a significant difference in someone’s experience, it’s important that we recognize them.”
Recipients of the Heart of Hamilton Award are Hannah Holland, Surgical Services nurse navigator; Misti Parrott, Surgical Services clinical manager; Lea Ann Clark, nurse recruiter; Ashley Cloer, Emergency Department operations manager; and Rachel Houghton, employee assistance professional. Kelly Henschel, Sports Medicine certified athletic trainer, received the Hamilton Hero Award.
The Heart of Hamilton Award is provided as a way to recognize Hamilton associates or volunteers for actions that truly demonstrate the “Heart of Hamilton” (serving with compassion through professionalism, respect, integrity, diligence and excellence). The Hamilton Hero Award recognizes associates or volunteers when they assist in a life-saving event outside the normal scope of their responsibilities.
Hamilton associates and volunteers can be nominated for the Heart of Hamilton Award at hamiltonhealth.com/heartofhamilton or at one of the recognition boxes located around the system. The awards can be submitted for individuals or groups.
A Heart of Hamilton Recipient of the Year is chosen from among the top recipient selections throughout the year.
“Our associates are the heart of the organization,” said Burge. “These associates showed true compassion for others — whether patients, family members or other associates. Their actions truly made a positive difference.”
