Stephanie empowers the team, leads by example, models extraordinary behavior by walking the walk and talking the talk.
Stephanie received 6 nominations from 8 different people. She was described as an amazing and effective mentor who leads by being empathetic to the staff and always encourages new ideas and creative thinking while also promoting autonomy. Stephanie empowers the team, leads by example, models extraordinary behavior by walking the walk and talking the talk. Her compelling communication unifies the team through a clear message: we support each other and together can accomplish anything. 2020 pulled her department in many directions and, despite their full plate, thanks to Stephanie, they were able to achieve accreditation for our RN Residency Program with distinction; submit quality improvement posters for dissemination, and submit and receive acceptance for publishing in a nursing peer‐review journal. Stephanie makes the impossible possible.
