I love the ability to write letters of thanks to our hero’s within the hospital. I am offended ask how I come up with what is within the letters. It comes from the heart. I will include some notes that I have written to different staff hero’s.
While COVID-19 may have put a damper on gatherings, the Laboratory has reason to have a whole-house celebration, with the remodeling completed and new automated equipment installed. Today, the lab is humming with professionals and machines working together, producing diagnostic results faster than ever to better serve our patients and our teams.
There is a sense of solidarity in bringing answers that drive patient treatments. While you work behind the scenes, you are a vital member of the Kettering Medical Center family; you are essential to the course of treatment and length of stay. You are indispensable to our patients, nursing teams, and physicians. You are the unsung heroes of clinical laboratories. You are called to work against the clock, underground and under pressure.You understand that every yes and no, every positive and negative, truly every result can change a life. You know that good is never good enough, so you check your work and ensure that accurate results are delivered.
Although it can be a tiring job, you do with an unfailing commitment day after day and test after test, because you know just how much is riding on your work. The health care profession is challenging, and there’s more to it than most people could ever imagine. We want to say thank you for all your hard work; it means a lot to our team members, our patients, and their families. Thank you for the sacrifices that you make. Thank you for doing the work that is now more important than ever.
Thank you for choosing to work at Kettering Medical Center.
