Caring Spirit Award , Good Catch Award

Caring Spirit award is a recognition that is especially meaningful because it was given in gratitude by a patient. The award was accompanied by a generous donation made to our organization in my name, supporting the care and services we provide.


Good Catch Award was given for identifying and preventing a potential patient incident. During the review of an ordered test, I recognized that the test posed a risk and was not appropriate for the patient, By speaking up promptly, the test was avoided preventing possible harm and ensuring the patient's safety.
