𝗖𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝗩𝗮𝗹𝘂𝗲𝘀: Know the way, show the way, ease the way,
Find Joy Along the Way

Torrie is a very inspiring employee. She is always willing to give a hand when needed. She is great at answering everyone's questions. She always works above and beyond. She knows the way, shows the way and eases the way. :) She is very caring with our patients, and we knew that because she is one of the phlebotomists patients always look for to draw blood on them. She is one of our patients' favorite vampires. All the patients she draws always go out of our phlebotomy room with a smile. She has this positive uplifting personality that is very contagious. She always finds joy along the way. She is really a good asset in our hospital, and all the patients she draws blood can prove it. Patients would not look for her if she wasn't one of our best.

𝗖𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝗩𝗮𝗹𝘂𝗲𝘀: One team, one mission

This was Sam's first year in overseeing the Facilities side of the Health Expo. I was inspired by his positive attitude, enthusiasm, and expertise when it comes to organizing all that is needed for the event. From the planning and preparation stage to during and after the event, Sam was always there to help wherever he was needed. After the event, Sam attended a meeting to review the positives and what could be improved upon for next year's event. He came with a detailed list. He made sure that the team had key takeaways from the Facilities perspective. He highlighted successes and also offered his suggestions that would help with certain details next year. Also, Sam not only offered to help with the event, which was in the early morning of his normal day off, but he worked until 10 p.m. the evening prior and had to maneuver tables, chairs, the 5K arch, etc. in inclement weather conditions. Everyone on the Health Expo and 5K team agree that Sam did a wonderful job!

Sam had a positive impact that reflected in his work with not only getting the job done but making it meaningful by detailing the positives and what can be improved upon for next year.
