Patient Care Technician Christina Avis was nominated for the quarterly Tulip Award at Mercy Hospital Jefferson by one of her co-workers for thoughtfulness and generosity.

“Chris always approaches her duties with caring thoughtfulness toward both her co-workers and our patients. Recently we had a patient without any basic resources including food, clean clothing and shelter. Chris bought this patient non-perishable food to take home and provided clean clothing from Catherine’s Closet prior to discharge. Our unit is a better place because of Chris Avis.”
