Apryl Bradshaw, Administrative Assistant at Memorial Hospital, has been employed at Memorial for 20
years. When asked what she likes most about working at Memorial, she replied, “The teamwork. Staff
members often wear many hats and work closely together to meet the needs of our patients. This
collaboration creates a supportive environment where everyone is committed to providing the best
possible care.”
Multiple nominations were submitted on her behalf that expressed why Bradshaw was a valid
candidate. The nominations recognized her outstanding dedication, reliability, and servant-hearted
commitment to Memorial Hospital. Nominators consistently praised her willingness to go above and
beyond, noting that she is a trusted resource for employees, volunteers, patients, and leadership,
always stepping in to help solve problems, support special events, and ensure daily operations run

some down time she enjoys spending it with her family and being outdoors.
Each quarter employees are encouraged to submit “star cards” for their co-workers who go above and
beyond in their patient care or teamwork. Four random cards were drawn at the award presentation for

Phlebotomist; and Kimmie Fulmer, HIM Associate.
