Today, we pause to remember the events of September 11, 2001, and honor the lives lost. We also pay tribute to the courage of first responders and healthcare workers who stepped forward that day, and every day since, to protect and care for others in moments of crisis.

🧼 Humans Who Heal | Sujeiza Echevarria

As we celebrate EVS Recognition Week, we’re honored to spotlight Sujeiza Echevarria, a dedicated Environmental Services team member at Harris Regional and Swain Community Hospitals.

Sujeiza’s work is more than cleaning. It’s infection prevention, patient safety, and peace of mind. Whether responding during the height of COVID-19 or preparing for Hurricane Helene, she’s helped ensure that every space is safe and healing.

“Healing means peace. A clean environment gives patients the space they need to rest and recover.”
