At UW Health Rehab Hospital, recognition goes far beyond awards—it’s about celebrating the heart and soul of our people. In 2025, one of our team members was honored as our Mercy Award Winner, a distinction that reflects exceptional compassion, service, and commitment to our mission. That recognition extended nationally when she was selected as a semifinalist for LifePoint Health’s prestigious Mercy Award, joining 60 other inspiring individuals from across the country.
LifePoint flew all semifinalists to Nashville for a two-day celebration that truly embodied our culture of appreciation and connection. From a red-carpet welcome and elegant awards dinner to a collaborative conference exploring the legacy behind the Mercy Award, every moment was thoughtfully designed to honor the impact of our caregivers. The experience culminated in a joyful evening of dinner and karaoke—bringing together people who felt more like living angels than colleagues.
This event wasn’t just about accolades. It served as a powerful reminder of the values we live by: compassion, excellence, and community. If you're looking for a workplace where your contributions are celebrated and your story matters, UW Health Rehab Hospital and LifePoint Health offer a culture where recognition is woven into everything we do.
Huge congratulations to Peyton Hegner on this incredible achievement!
We’re beyond proud to have you as part of our team. Your dedication and compassion continue to make a meaningful difference in our hospital and throughout the community. Thank you for inspiring us all!
