Our Latest Field Staff Recognition Winner
Preferred is excited to introduce Grace L., a dedicated Radiation Therapist currently serving at an acute care facility in San Francisco, California. Her recruiter, Dawn Brown, nominated Grace because, over the last 2+ years of working with her, she has displayed exceptional professionalism, adaptability and a collaborative approach to patient care. Grace has unequivocally embodied each of PHS’s values of Passion, Honesty and Service.
Why Grace Became a Radiation Therapist
“I was 12 years old when my mom passed away from Leukemia. That moment turned my world upside down. I rebelled and I cried and I had so many emotions. I felt guilty for not being able to help her or be present for her as I’d like to be. I wanted to find a way to give back to my mom, so I found radiation therapy.
Being a radiation therapist has helped heal my inner child. I know I can’t turn back time or live in the past, but each patient I come across I treat them as if they were my mom. I’m meticulous with my work. I’m empathetic and I try to create joyful, happy memories with everyone I meet. I know cancer is scary, but with the right attitude it doesn’t have to be. Miracles happen everyday.”
