Sydnee Partridge, a radiology technician for Audubon County Memorial Hospital and Clinics (ACMH), has been honored with the first ROSE Award at the hospital. Partridge has worked in the radiology department since 2021 being nominated by Sarah Asmus, OPC/Surgery Manager. Asmus says “I am honored to nominate Partridge for the ROSE Award in recognition for her outstanding service, dedication, and the lasting impact she makes on both patients and colleagues. She consistently exemplifies the core values of Rapport, Optimism, Sincerity, and Empathy, truly embodying excellence with quality and compassion.” Patridge is known for bringing a positive attitude to every situation and building meaningful patient relationships. She deeply understands patients’ needs, responding with compassion and care. ACMH Pain Management Specialist Brian Jacobs echoes the words of Asmus, saying, “Partridge consistently takes initiative in preparing for our cases and double checking our clinic orders, and these efficiencies contribute greatly to the flow in our pain clinic. She is loved by our patients, and this undoubtedly puts patients at ease before procedures and positively influences the patient experience. I look forward to working with her for years to come.” The ROSE Award is an annual program that recognizes non-nursing employees who care for patients with high-quality and compassionate care beyond expectations. Employees must meet specific criteria to be considered for the award: rapport with patients, optimism, sincerity, and empathy. Nominations can be made by patients, family, co-workers, and volunteers, then reviewed and voted on by five ACMH nursing staff.
