How's this for a Throwback Thursday? Last month our Dignity Health East Valley GME team (now known as Creighton University East Valley Arizona) celebrated Resident Appreciation Day by hosting a sweets bar at both Chandler Regional Medical Center and Mercy Gilbert Medical Center. Additionally, the team collected and proudly displayed over 51 positive notes from staff, nurses, and faculty recognizing our residents’ hard work and dedication. Each resident received an outdoor folding chair as a gift of appreciation. We also held a prize drawing, and six lucky residents’ names were selected.
Special thanks to Dignity Health East Valley hospital president, Mario Garner, and Dignity Health's Designated Institutional Official for Creighton University East Valley Arizona, Dr. Abdul Waheed, for spending quality time celebrating with our residents. 🧡 Individual programs at Dignity Health Medical Group — including Emergency Medicine, Family Medicine, Internal Medicine, General Surgery and OBGYN — further celebrated their residents in their own special ways, ensuring it was a meaningful and well-deserved day of recognition.
