HEALTHCARE HEROES | WHAT MAKES A HERO?<br />
Heroes come from many walks of life, can work any job and the<br />
heroic acts they perform can be just as varied as their origins. The<br />
healthcare sector is no exception, as the smallest of deeds can have<br />
such a long lasting effect that many deem them to be heroic.<br />
Newcross champions healthcare heroes.<br />
We recognise our home grown talent and<br />
the positive impact that you leave with<br />
our clients. Each quarter, we celebrate<br />
your achievements with our Excellence in<br />
Healthcare and Complex Care Awards.<br />
Our Bournemouth branch is the home of this quarter’s winner of<br />
our Excellence in Complex Care award. HCA Zbingniew Kruk<br />
(Zibby), a former electrician, was nominated for providing the family<br />
of his clients much needed respite through the level of passionate<br />
care he delivers. Zibby said “I am very honoured to receive the<br />
award, a smile and a thank you is enough, but I feel this is a lovely<br />
way to be recognised”.<br />
Zibby was proudly presented with his award in branch by<br />
Bournemouth Complex Care BCM Nicola Fordham and Field<br />
Team Leader Aleesha Lloyd.<br />
During the presentation Zibby was asked what his favourite aspect of<br />
his job with Newcross was, to which he responded; “Patient contact<br />
is the best part of my role. I enjoy seeing the difference I can make in<br />
someone else’s life, and making that easier is extremely rewarding”.<br />
BCM Nicola Fordham commented, “Zibby is an ambassador for the<br />
difference the human touch that we provide can have for our clients,<br />
we are proud to have him on our team”.<br />
