Humans of Partnership:

My children and I always do a community service project in December. We sort toys that go to local hospitals or to children in need. This year, I joined a women’s group, the Classy Living Society—pooling our talents, our resources, and our time to serve others. Last spring, we collected 1,200 pairs of socks for a local homeless shelter. Socks are the most needed and least donated item. We also visit nursing homes, do the residents’ hair and play bingo. I want my kids to see how working with others can make an even bigger difference.

As the youngest of four kids and the only girl,  I learned that I had to decide if I was going to be a leader or a follower. To be a leader, I would need to be confident, take risks, possess communication skills, have knowledge and build relationships. I enjoyed riding dirt bikes and was a tomboy. I started my own BMX dirt bike club with the kids in my neighborhood. We would work together on new stunts and compete against other kids. I learned that teamwork makes the dream work and there is no ‘I’ in team.

I do process improvement every day as part of my job. I sort mail and look for ways to save money. I noticed that several envelopes were being mailed to the same location almost daily. I decided to bundle the envelopes to the same location and was able to save over $20 per bundle, which is about $1,500 monthly for just this one location. I’ve got 15 addresses I do this with. Everything I do with the mail, I look for savings. I’ve worked for KP for 46 years. I’m a mail clerk—that’s what I do and I’ve had the same job since I was hired.

I used to be in a department that was driven by management—it was ‘my way or the highway.’ There was no enthusiasm in the workforce, nobody smiled, nobody cared. A pay cut and a couple months later, I transferred to the Emergency department. There I was introduced to the UBT and never looked back. Our meetings are held as ‘equals’ alongside some of the most empathetic managers and supervisors, and we are trusting each other to do by what's right by the department and not by the individual.

 People are always touching me. Talking baby talk to me. That’s OK. It makes them feel better. When I go to work, I’m there for the patients. In my heart, though, I know I’m there for the staff, too. They work so hard. They look so stressed sometimes. No wonder it’s hard for them to speak up. I give them a little bump, and I know I’ve helped. That’s how I speak up. Every day. I’m a pet therapy dog. I’ve been coming to Sunnyside Medical Center for nearly two years.
