The Heart of Hamilton Award is provided as a way to recognize Hamilton associates or volunteers for actions that truly demonstrate the “Heart of Hamilton” (serving with compassion through professionalism, respect, integrity, diligence and excellence). The Hamilton Hero Award recognizes associates or volunteers when they assist in a life-saving event outside the normal scope of their responsibilities.
Hamilton associates and volunteers can be nominated for the Heart of Hamilton Award at VitruvianHealth.com/heartofhamilton or at one the recognition boxes located around the system. The awards are able to be submitted for individuals or groups.
A Heart of Hamilton Recipient of the Year is chosen from among the top recipient selections throughout the year.
“Hamilton Medical Center and Vitruvian Health focus on serving with compassion,” said Brandon Burge, director of Organizational and Clinical Development. “When associates and volunteers go out of their way to make a difference in the lives of patients, family members, guests or other associates and volunteers, Vitruvian Health is committed to recognizing their extraordinary actions.”
