Congratulations to phlebotomist, Mandy Brady who has been awarded September’s Outstanding Contribution for Living Our Values Award for exceptional compassion and kindness.
On Friday (19 December), Mandy was surprised by Queen Elizabeth Hospital (QEH) Interim Executive Managing Director, Chris Bown, alongside her QEH colleagues, to be presented with her award.
Mandy’s nomination shared how she went above and beyond, showing compassion and commitment, while helping a member of the public in an emergency situation on her way into work. Her nomination highlighted her quick action, doing all she could to honour the person’s dignity and modesty, as well as her dedication to wellness and kindness to others.
Mandy, who was shocked to be presented with the award, said: “Thank you, I was just doing my job, and I am overwhelmed to have been nominated. I would like to thank all of my colleagues for the support they gave me when I returned to work after what happened.”
