Please join us in celebrating Lucia (Luci) Bush, LCSW, the most recent recipient of the Mission, Vision, Values (MVV) in ACTION Award at Guthrie Cortland Medical Center! Lucia serves as Manager of Social Work for the Residential Care Facility at the hospital.
Nominations for the MVV Award are made by employees for their caregiver colleagues. Lucia’s nomination read, in part:
“Luci goes above and beyond her responsibilities every day. Her acts of kindness, both large and small, have a meaningful impact on the lives of our residents. She understands that sometimes comfort comes in simple gestures, whether it is taking a moment out of her busy day to bring a resident a bag of popcorn, sitting quietly with someone who needs companionship, or holding a resident's hand during a difficult time. These actions reflect her deep commitment to providing not only support, but also dignity, comfort, and human connection.”
Lucia shared this statement about the award: “I hope it will help other social workers feel appreciated, as I never stand alone in what I do.”
Thank you for your compassion and meaningful work, Lucia!
