Tommy Smith has been named AdventHealth Gordon’s latest SonShine Award recipient.
Smith, a patient care tech at AdventHealth Gordon, received a nomination from a team member who said the following:
“Anytime I have been floated to MedSurg and Tommy is the tech I know it’s going to be a good shift. He always goes the extra mile for the patient and the nurse. He has an amazing attitude, and I love when he floats to PCU. On a recent shift I worked, one of my patients mentioned how amazing of a tech he was.”
The SonShine Award was established by AdventHealth Gordon and AdventHealth Murray in 2017 to honor the hard work and dedication of its employees. Quarterly awards provide opportunities for patients, visitors and other team members to recognize and reward team members for exceptional accomplishments and demonstrated behaviors that are aligned to the mission, vision and values of AdventHealth.
The name SonShine was developed by AdventHealth Gordon and AdventHealth Murray team members. The recipients of the SonShine award “shine” for the “Son” of God through their warm and comforting care they provide to patients and their fellow employees.
