Meet Celeste, CNA, our latest Bee awardee! Celeste is a traveler in the ICU and has made a lasting impression amongst her peers. Celeste was nominated by colleagues in the ICU for her exceptional care for a patient and his family that went above and beyond expectations, which ultimately earned her recognition with a Bee award.
Here is Celeste’s nomination:
“We had a patient who was in a traumatic ATV accident. This patient and his girlfriend had mentioned getting married before the patient went to rehab. Celeste offered her services. She not only officiated and married them out in the Sky Lakes second floor garden, but she did her (the bride’s) makeup, including eyelashes, making the bride absolutely beautiful and feel special. Celeste always goes the extra mile, and we love her and her passion. We would like to clone her.”
The BEE Award recognizes non-nurse care team members for their “extraordinary, compassionate and skillful care to help make a difference in the lives of our patients” and is based on nominations from patients, families and colleagues. The award complements the DAISY Award for nurses.
Just as the daisy cannot survive without the bee, nurses cannot survive without the outstanding teamwork provided by other colleagues. You can learn more about the Bee award or submit an online nomination form.
Congratulations Celeste!
