Lauren Cunningham, Assistant Nursing Manager, Aflac Cancer Center, Children’s at Egleston

According to her team, when Lauren Cunningham is in charge, you know you’re going to have a good day. She goes above and beyond to help the nurses, PCTs, PNPs and physicians and is always researching ways the clinic can improve upon the excellent care it already provides. In addition to the hard work she puts into the clinic from both a business and clinical perspective, Lauren takes care of those around her. From arranging potluck lunches to boost staff morale to comforting a patient having a difficult time, Lauren makes everyone feel that they’re part of the same family—their Children’s family. Said one Aflac team member, “Lauren has always encouraged us to do our best. The little things she does, like e-mailing you to let you know you’re doing a great job means the world to us. We greatly value her opinion.”
