Leyla Davila, CNA, was honored at Central Texas Medical Center (CTMC) as the hospital’s latest Sunflower Award recipient. The award recognizes ancillary nursing staff, which includes Nursing Assistants and Nursing Technicians, who show uncommon compassion, integrity, leadership and education to patients and their families.
“Leyla is precisely what we look for in a Sunflower Award winner,” CTMC Chief Nursing Officer Catherine Amitrano said. “Her willingness to go above and beyond for our patients and team members exemplifies the resiliency, strength and compassion the sunflower has come to represent.”
After coming in on her day off, Davila happily assisted a coworker bathe a special needs patient knowing it would likely cause her to stay later than her scheduled shift.
