🌟 Shining Star for Patient Safety Award 🌟

Join us in celebrating Latonya Brinson, respiratory therapist, for earning the Shining Star for Patient Safety Award.

Latonya used her critical thinking skills to request a chest X-ray for a patient in respiratory distress on CPAP who was experiencing upper body swelling. Her quick action and clinical insight led to the discovery of a pneumothorax, preventing further complications and improving patient safety.

“Thanks, Tonya, for following our HRO journey values of deference to expertise and reluctance to simplify,” said Angela Booker, Manager of Cardiopulmonary.
