Congratulations to Christy Briggs, RN, BSN, with our Women’s LifeCare Team. Christy is our June Service Excellence Nursing Winner!

She was nominated by her supervisor who said, Christy “consistently demonstrates exceptional dedication, compassion and professionalism in every aspect of care. What truly sets her apart is the unwavering commitment to the team and our patients. She is often the first to volunteer to work and always brings a calming presence that reassures those in her presence. Recently late one evening around midnight, our unit was full, we had a critical patient, and I called to ask if Christy would please come in to lend a hand and support the team. The only words she spoke were, ‘I will be there as quick as I can.’”

Thank you, Christy, for the compassion you show to our patients, their families and your colleagues. We are proud to have you on our team!
