A program to recognize the extraordinary care and contributions of our non-licensed nursing support staff continues at UHS with Jossy Abraham, North Wing 4, UHS Wilson Medical Center, who was named the September winner of the Sunshine Award! Jossy received the Sunshine Award, along with a bouquet of sunflowers in recognition of her accomplishments and enjoyed cookies during the celebration.
The nursing assistant was nominated by a colleague. In the nomination letter, the colleague describes Jossy as someone who truly cares about her work, commending the compassion she shows patients. The colleague also praises Jossy’s readiness to support her team, knowing she can confidently delegate appropriate tasks to Jossy and that they will always be completed with patient care and safety as her main priority.
“Jossy is always the first person to lend a helping hand. I know that when I am working with Jossy, I have the support that I need as a nurse,” the colleague wrote in the nominating letter. “She is compassionate about the care she gives her patients. She always makes everyone feel comfortable and well cared for.”
Thank you to Jossy for your Compassion and Teamwork, a stellar example of our team living “The UHS Way!”
Patients, families, and colleagues are able to nominate any of our non-licensed support staff based on our UHS Values of Respect, Teamwork, Innovation, Trust, and especially Compassion. Nominations will be collected via paper - look for nomination kiosks and boxes at all UHS locations, via email at sunshine.awards@nyuhs.org, and electronically.
All nominees will be recognized, but each month, one nominee will be selected for a special recognition.
