‘Making
a
difference
every
day’
“A patient’s mother needed her hair
trimmed (the patient had been at MUSC several weeks). Lane went above
and beyond to have one of her friends come to the hospital to cut and
style this mother’s hair. The mother was very appreciative.”
“Patricia
went above and
beyond her call of duty as a social worker to ensure that a discharged
patient would receive his medications. The medications were left in the
patient’s room upon discharge when he was being transported home. The
patient’s family did not have any means of transportation to come to
the hospital to pick up the medications. Patricia drove to the
patient’s home in Harleyville to deliver his medications. Needless to
say, this was on Thanksgiving eve at the end of the workday. Patricia
is a wonderful person and a dedicated colleague. She is a role model
for the social work profession and an asset to MUSC.”
