Our most recent Sunshine Award winner is Seth White!
June 11, 2025
A program to recognize the extraordinary care and contributions of our non-licensed nursing support staff continues at UHS with Seth White, NA, Memorial 6, UHS Binghamton General Hospital, who was named the April winner of the Sunshine Program Award! Seth received the Sunshine Award and a bouquet of sunflowers in recognition of his accomplishments and enjoyed cookies during the celebration.
The Memorial 6 nursing assistant was nominated by the wife of a patient he cared for. In her letter, she addressed how Seth showed patience and empathy towards her husband while still making him laugh despite the circumstances. She also mentioned that Seth built a relationship with her husband and how well he communicated to keep them informed throughout his stay.
"He made my husband feel valued as a patient, and his positive, joyful personality was WONDERFUL," said the wife. "Seth sets a high standard of care that we hope everyone gets to experience when they come to UHS!"
Thank you to Seth for treating our patients with Compassion and Respect, 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.
