The Everyday Excellence Heart and Soul award recognizes those who model professionalism, are constantly reliable and consistently provide high quality results and service to customers.
Bridgett McGrath is a nurse on 3 South, General Hospital.
According to the folks who nominated her, she is an excellent nurse who inspires patients and her co-workers each day. She always comes to work with a smile and can make the darkest days a
little brighter.
A recent example of this was when McGrath was taking care of an elderly patient. The patient had been admitted for quite a few days and was becoming increasingly discouraged.
McGrath used one of her non-nursing talents to cheer up the patient.
She keeps supplies to make balloon animals in the nurses’ lounge.
McGrath made a dog as well as a crown for the patient to wear. This caused the patient and family to smile and laugh for the first time in days.
