Tiffany Bradley, a CNA known for going above and beyond in compassionate care, is the newest winner of the Sunflower Award at AdventHealth Hendersonville.

A nominator shared that Bradley, who works in the medical/surgical unit, stayed after her shift to sit and hold the hand of a patient who was in the final stages of life. The next day, in between caring for other patients, Bradley would continue to check on the patient and hold his hand, so he wasn’t alone during that difficult time.

“After his family arrived, Tiffany went above and beyond to empathize and comfort his family while also keeping him as comfortable as possible,” RN Tammi Jones said. “She is an excellent addition to the Med/Surg team and really deserves to be recognized for her hard work and compassionate care.”

AdventHealth Hendersonville established the quarterly Sunflower Award to recognize certified nursing assistants who commit to striving for excellence in their profession; consistently deliver patient-centered, whole-person care with integrity; embrace the opportunity to learn and grow; and integrate change to improve the health and well-being of patients, family members and guest while Extending the Healing Ministry of Christ.
