About the Sunflower Award
The quarterly AdventHealth Sunflower Award was established to recognize certified nursing assistants who commit to striving for excellence in their profession. They consistently deliver patient-centered, whole-person care with integrity.
These special team members embrace the opportunity to learn and grow. And they integrate change to improve the health and well-being of patients, family members and guests while living out our mission, Extending the Healing Ministry of Christ.
