Herb Sanders, an SSM Health Ripon Community Hospital clinical partner, has been named the newest recipient of the BEE (Be Exceptional Everyday) Award.

Sanders was recognized by a patient who wrote:

“Herb went above and beyond to take good care of me. I really felt like he cared about me as a person, not just a patient. I was really feeling bad, and I couldn’t thank him enough for his care and just being here for me.”

The BEE Award is specifically designed to recognize non-nursing staff members who demonstrate great teamwork and communication skills, collaboration, professionalism, exemplary service, and a commitment to excellence.
