The BEE Award Example Nomination

"I would like to nominate a PCT who always goes above and beyond for her patients and does so with a huge smile on her face. I want to recognize her for her amazing and impeccable bedside manner. I am a long term patient here. This PCT has truly adopted me as her surrogate grandma. She takes me outside every day to sit in the sunshine and pays me extra special attention. She even takes her own break time to sit and eat her lunch with me. When I begin to feel discouraged, she helps me keep my eye on my goals. She is encouraging, kind, and informative. I would like to thank her for treating me like family instead of a patient. I pray you acknowledge her for the superstar that she is. She has such a kind heart and is absolutely in the right profession."
