We love being able to share your stories and celebrate your compassion and good works each week in Scene and on our social media platforms. With nearly 3,000 colleagues at Saint Agnes, we know there are hundreds of acts of kindness happening each day. Since we can’t be in every department, we need you to help us recognize outstanding colleagues. If you know a colleague that deserves a shoutout – even if it’s for something small – nominate them to be featured in an upcoming issue.

Kudos to our 610 colleagues who received their annual flu shot during Tuesday’s clinic! If you didn’t get yours, plan to attend one of our remaining clinics: Thursday, September 29, or Tuesday, October 4. To reward you for taking this important step toward protecting your health, you will receive an ice cream voucher to be redeemed for one ice cream bar in One Main Café. Simply present your voucher and brown flu badge rider to a cashier to receive your treat. Should you opt to get your shot elsewhere, remember to bring your paperwork to Employee Health Services to receive your 2022-2023 flu badge and ice cream voucher!

When it comes to breast cancer, early detection is your best protection. We all know life gets in the way, but we encourage you to make your annual screenings a priority. If you’re 40 or older and haven’t yet scheduled your annual or you haven’t had a mammogram in a few years, don’t delay and schedule online today. No referral needed. Plus, everyone who receives their screening mammogram at the Saint Agnes Breast Center during the month of October will receive a free gift – while supplies last!
