OLEAN — Olean General Hospital and Bradford Regional Medical Center presented their August star awards.
Brittany Smith, who is a medical office assistant, received the August star award at OGH.
“Brittany has gone above and beyond in her job duties in the urology office,” her nomination for the award stated. “While struggling with ongoing staffing issues, she has stepped up to the plate in making sure patients are still our number one priority.”
Registered nurse Brooke Lipps was awarded the BRMC August Star Award.
“Brooke has stepped up to help with departmental audits while making sure that the medical floor and adjacent areas were ready for the Joint Commission,” her nomination stated. “This initiative was completely on her own accord and without prompting by management.”
