Congratulations to Sonja Harb, MHT, for receiving the October Tulip Award!
Here is what a couple colleagues had to say about Sonja:
"Sonja is the hardest working tech I know. She cares deeply about her role and maintains safety on the unit. She notices safety issues no one else does and has prevented countless issues. No one really notices everything she does until she is gone, but I do. She has a very stressful position and sometimes serves as a punching bag as the first person answering a phone call or a patient yelling at her, but she knows when to set limits and hold firm. She is a great asset to our unit!"
"Sonja has been a team member on the unit for a long time. As a result, she has so much knowledge about her unit and the patients. In high-stress situations, she is an amazing de-escalator. I have seen her talk to patients and their families with compassion, kindness and a comforting voice. Sonja is often at the front desk taking calls, so she is often the first voice worried family members hear. She is amazing at being there for them and getting them the appropriate person to talk to – simple, but important, and very helpful to the nurse. Please consider strongly giving Sonja this award. Her consistency, compassion, knowledge, and willingness to be helpful to staff and patients alike, is a great asset to the Bryan Community. Thank you!"
Sonja, thank you for the care you provide daily to your patients. You make a difference in the lives of others. We are grateful that you are part of the Bryan Medical Staff.
