Shine Award Winner

Sadie Williams 

Sadie Williams, a nursing assistant at Methodist Hospital, has been honored with the Shine Award.

Her nomination read: “She was helpful when I first came to the unit. I was overwhelmed and scared. I was unsure of my treatment plan, and Sadie made me feel welcomed. I started to cry from being overwhelmed, but Sadie offered me a hug, which helped me know I was in good hands. She came in just about every hour the first few days just to see if I was doing OK. Even when she didn't have my room, she would stop in to make sure I was OK. You as a hospital should feel blessed to have an employee with that kind of passion for her work.”

Congratulations, Sadie, on receiving the Shine Award. We thank you for all your hard work to show patients and their families The Meaning of Care.
