WE CARE
Memorial’s Vision is to be the driving force that improves the health of our patients throughout their lifetime. We cannot accomplish this without each team member showing up to work each day to make a difference in the lives of our patients, their families and our community. Recognizing members of the Memorial Family is a small way to show appreciation.
There are three ways employees can be recognized by their peers, patients, or visitors:
STELLAR – Visitors, patients, and Memorial team members can recognize employees for their hard work and dedication with a small token of appreciation and words of encouragement. This simple gesture serves as a heartfelt “thank you.” The recipient will receive a “Stellar” treat on your behalf and be recognized internally.
DAISY – Nurses may be nominated by patients or their families who want to express their gratitude and recognize them for the extraordinary skillful, and compassionate care they gave.
STAR – Memorial employees can nominate another team member for our highest honor; awarded to those who demonstrate exceptional care, service, and go beyond the scope of their work.

Any Memorial employee, clinical or non-clinical, from any department.
Any Memorial staff member, visitor, or patient.
If the person you are recommending exhibited one or more of Memorial’s values, standards, or attributes of our Mission – to heal, inspire and transform the health of our community.
This award is a small way we can recognize the hard work of our colleagues by:
Nominations can be made here, or by requesting a paper form while onsite at the hospital. Memorial employees can nominate other employees using a form on Memorial’s intranet.
