Witham Health Services recognizes team member for exceptional care
May 14, 2026
Witham Health Services is proud to recognize Ashley Crum, a Certified Surgical Technologist in the Endocrinology department, as a recent recipient of the organization’s Sunflower Award.
Given twice annually, the Sunflower Award recognizes non-nursing team members who personify Witham’s remarkable patient experience through expertise, empathy, and compassionate care. Honorees are recognized as outstanding role models within the Witham community.
Ashley was nominated and selected for her extraordinary compassion and commitment to patient care after going above and beyond to help a young surgical patient return home comfortably. Upon learning the child needed clean clothes following surgery, Ashley coordinated with her husband and son to purchase clothing and personally deliver it to the hospital.
“Ashley’s actions are an example of the compassion and empathy we strive to provide every patient and family who walks through our doors,” said Director of Patient Experience Rebecca Bradley. “She saw a need, took initiative, and made a lasting impact on a young patient during a vulnerable moment. Ashley truly embodies the heart behind the Sunflower Award.”
