BEE Award HonoreesKelley W. - Department of OB/GYNNominated by a team member:“I am honored to nominate Kelley for the BEE Award in recognition of the extraordinary care, dedication, and teamwork she demonstrates every single day. Kelley consistently goes above and beyond in her role as an ultrasonographer to ensure the needs of her patients, providers, and fellow team members are met. No matter how busy the schedule or how challenging the circumstances, she approaches every situation with professionalism, compassion, and a genuine desire to help. She doesn’t simply complete the task at hand—she anticipates needs, finds solutions, and willingly steps in wherever she is needed. Over the past year, Kelley has been instrumental in supporting the OB/GYN department through periods of transition. She has generously shared her knowledge and expertise while helping train travelers, students, and new team members, ensuring they feel welcomed, supported, and equipped to provide exceptional patient care. Her patience, encouragement, and willingness to teach have made a lasting impact on both the team and the patients served. One example that perfectly illustrates Kelley’s commitment occurred today when a patient required an urgent add-on ultrasound to meet the time-sensitive requirements for a nuchal translucency (NT) screening. Without hesitation, Kelley immediately sprang into action, adjusted her day, and accommodated the patient so both the patient and provider received the support they needed without delay. To Kelley, this wasn’t an inconvenience—it was simply another opportunity to do what was best for the patient. While this moment stands out, it is truly representative of how Kelley approaches every day. She continually does whatever she can to meet the needs of the practice and creates a five-star experience for everyone she encounters. Her customer service shines through not only in her words, but in her actions. She treats every patient with kindness, dignity, and compassion while fostering a collaborative, supportive environment for her coworkers. Kelley exemplifies the values of excellence, teamwork, and patient-centered care. She is the kind of team member who makes everyone around her better, and the OB/GYN department is stronger because of her dedication. She is extraordinary in every sense of the word. It is with sincere appreciation and gratitude that I nominate Kelley for the BEE Award.” - Kailey B.Taylor S. - Department of Learning & DevelopmentNominated by a team member:"Taylor consistently demonstrates the kind of compassion, teamwork, and dedication that make a meaningful difference in our daily work. What inspires me most is how she shows up - not just in big moments, but in the small, everyday interactions that shape our culture. She is the person who notices when someone is overwhelmed and steps in without being asked, who offers support before anyone has to reach for it, and who brings a sense of calm and positivity to every situation. Taylor embodies what it means to go above and beyond. She demonstrates kindness, treats everyone with respect, and consistently creates a welcoming environment both within our team and beyond. Her everyday actions reflect the mission and values of Christie Clinic, and she makes our workplace better simply by being who she is. What makes Taylor truly exceptional is that there isn’t just one moment that defines her impact - it’s the way she consistently shows up for others. She is thoughtful in ways that uplift the entire team, whether that’s offering a kind word at the right time, anticipating needs before they’re voiced, or lending a helping hand when she sees someone is stretched thin. Helping others isn’t something she does occasionally; it’s simply who she is. Her everyday actions create a work environment where people feel supported, valued, and never alone. I’m grateful to know her, and even more grateful to work alongside her." - Sierra S.
