Announcing the second round of Extraordinary Experiences winners!

When Hunter Luker, a Patient Care Technician in the float pool, was assigned to care for a combative patient in the Pediatric Neuroscience-Trauma unit, he treated the assignment as an opportunity to make that child’s day.
Commit to Sit 16 9

Hunter took the child out for several walks, challenged him to a Minecraft tournament, and found batteries to fix his remote-control car. 

Sydnee Hall, the Patient Care Technician/Health Unit Coordinator at the Pediatric Neuroscience-Trauma unit who nominated Hunter for the Extraordinary Experiences campaign, tells us, “This child was on cloud nine the entire day.” She had never seen him so well-behaved.

Thank you, Sydnee, for noticing Hunter’s extraordinary efforts that day and taking time to nominate Hunter for the Extraordinary Experiences campaign! You and Hunter will both receive prizes!
