We are proud to announce our inaugural Employee of the Bunuru (February/March) - Priscilla Nanguromo, Nurse, Mental Health Unit at Sir Charles Gairdner Hospital.
At a celebratory morning tea with her colleagues, Priscilla was presented with a $150 gift voucher, a EOS badge and a certificate of recognition for her outstanding contribution to our health service.
Priscilla routinely leads by example and models the NMHS values at SCGH Mental Health Unit. Priscilla's nomination (submitted by fellow MHU nurse Emma) describes Priscilla's 'consistent hard work and authentic, person-centred approach - demonstrated not only when caring for her patients, but in her everyday interactions with colleagues and patients alike'.
In her nursing care, the nomination states 'Priscilla sees each patient for themselves, their experiences, their needs and wants'.
Priscilla is a natural leader who inspires and guides others and is a privilege to work with” said Emma.
Priscilla gave a moving speech thanking her colleagues for her transformative journey at work from a shy person to the person she is today.
The Employee of the Season celebrates NMHS staff whose contributions have led to improved outcomes for patients, staff and/or the community embodying the NMHS values of: ‘Care, Respect, Innovation, Teamwork and Integrity'.
Formerly known as the Employee of the Quarter, the restructured Employee of the Season aligns with the Noongar Six Seasons (external site) occurring every two months.
A special thanks to our generous sponsors: HESTA, Paywise, Smartsalary and Aware Super.
