We're excited announce our latest BEE Award winner, Sharita Howell! Here is her nomination:
I was here with my husband who was having a knee replacement. I had hurt my hip so I was making good use of his walker and looking for the cafeteria. Sharita saw this and said “What are you looking for?” When I told her and she saw me using the walker, she said “well you just sit down right here and I’ll take you down there!” She not only took me to the cafeteria, but waited for me to get my food and then wheeled me back to the waiting room. This meant so much to me because I also have very arthritic feet and walking a long way is very difficult! She was so sweet to help me and it meant so much!
BEE stands for Being Exceptional Everyday. This award recognizes extraordinary service from our non-nursing staff. Any employee from any department (except RNs) can be nominated for the BEE Award. RNs are recognized for exceptional service with The DAISY Award.
BEE Award nominations will be accepted from patients, patients’ family members, physicians, DCH employees and volunteers. If you’ve experienced or witnessed extraordinary service from a DCH team member, then nominate that person for the BEE Award.
Clear display boxes, which include printed nomination forms, are located throughout DCH hospitals for both the BEE Award and The DAISY Award. Click here to use the electronic forms.
