Winners of the August Birthday Draw

Submitted by Janet Prins, project coordinator, Systems Transformation & Flow; and coordinator of the VCH-Richmond Recognition Program

Happy Birthday and congratulations to the following staff members who celebrated birthdays in August and are the lucky winners of this month’s birthday draw:

  • Esther Kan – 6North
  • Baljit Lail – Community Home Support Admin.
  • Tracy Hodson – Communicable Disease and Harm Reduction

Each month we run a list of all names of staff who are celebrating a birthday that month, and randomly draw 3 names. The lucky recipients are acknowledged in the VCH-Richmond newsletter and each receives a coffee mug and a Starbuck’s gift card.

The monthly birthday draw is one component of the VCH-Richmond Recognition Program.  The program aims to contribute to a healthy, happy workplace where staff feel valued, appreciated and connected.  Fostering a culture of recognition supports Vancouver Coastal Health’s Strategic Framework by acknowledging those who demonstrate our core values of service, quality, integrity and sustainability as well as our People First lens.
