🎉🐝 Congratulations to Candace Leduc, who is our latest BEE Award recipient! She was honored with a surprise ceremony with her colleagues at our Family Medicine Center recently. When the flu and COVID-19 hit our team hard earlier this year, Leduc helped keep things moving smoothly for our patients and her co-workers by jumping in to help in a variety of ways. Deborah DiRito, who supervises the clinic, said in her nomination of Leduc that she helped staff from other clinics filling in get familiarized with their processes, trained nursing staff on logging on to phones in the call center to help answer calls from patients, helped with checking patients in and out in a timely manner and answered many phone calls. "Any time there was a question, Candace was there with a smile to answer it," DiRito recalls. "Never did Candace show that she was stressed. She managed the situation with ease and with that infectious smile! Watching her and hearing from other staff about the impact she made that week has made me incredibly proud of her." "I don't know that Family Med would have made it through those two weeks as well as we did if it wasn't for Candace's positive attitude," she adds. We're proud of Candace and all of our teams for stepping up to care for our patients and each other through every challenge that comes their way. (fb)
