Catawba Valley Medical Center Recognizes July 2011 CARE Employee

HICKORY, NC – Catawba Valley Medical Center recognized Tiffany Osborne RN, of the Surgical Department, as the July CARE employee. A patient nominated Tiffany.

Following are remarks offered in nominating Tiffany: “She is an awesome nurse! By definition, anyone expects a nurse to take care of our basic medical needs. Most would expect some level of tenderness and caring. When my mother and I encountered Tiffany, she was far more. From my Mom’s first night in the hospital to the last night she worked with us, she gave 100% and came into our room with the same smile and energy level. Nursing is her gift.”

Catawba Valley Medical Center’s CARE employee, nominated monthly by employees and guests, embodies Courtesy, Attitude, Respect and Enthusiasm for commitment to maintaining a positive guest relations atmosphere while demonstrating a sincere compassion and concern for patients and fellow staff members.
