CARING KIND

Nebraska Hospital Association "Caring Kind Award"

Pender Community Hospital is pleased to announce that Amanda Bach as this year's Caring Kind recipient.

Amanda radiates with positivity and an energetic attitude. She leads by example with her compassion for patients, ability to manage the most chaotic situations in a calm and efficient manner. She is constantly referred to as a wonderful resource and educator for her team. Going above and beyond to care for her patients and help co-workers. During this unique time dealing with COVID-19, Amanda has dedicated countless hours to make sure others in the department are able to safely implement the use of additional PPE required to care for COVID patients. She stepped up to the plate and worked diligently with the Emergency Preparedness Coordinator and Facilities Manager to ensure the set-up of our COVID wing is both practical and efficient.

You are naturally drawn to Amanda with her lighthearted and jovial personality. If you were to pass by Amanda, you'd most likely find her smiling (under her mask of course), laughing, doing a little dance move, and caring for those around her. We are so proud to have Amanda as part of the Pender Community Hospital Team!

We couldn't be more honored to have Amanda represent our facility, congratulations on being chosen Pender Community Hospital's Caring Kind recipient!
