She never hesitates to spend extra time to make them feel well cared for

Dawn consistently goes above and beyond for all of her patients. She never hesitates to spend extra time with her patient to make them feel well cared for. Dawn treats her patients like family. Dawn treats all patients with courtesy and kindness. I regularly see her communicate patient needs clearly to her fellow team members so that she ensures all needs are met. I love to see her communicate and interact with our elderly patients. She takes the time to make personal connections, ask questions and empathize with patients.

Dawn Lewis is an acute care assistant in the C5/Oncology Unit at Bronson Battle Creek Hospital. She is the recipient of the 2021 Sunshine Award, which is given each year to team members who help our clinical staff provide exceptional care for patients and families.
