Keith McCray, a transporter in the Diagnostic Imaging department, has been selected the May Ambassador of the Month at Franciscan St. Anthony Health – Michigan City.
The award, which has been ongoing since 1988, is presented by the hospital’s Social and Recognition Committee and recognizes employees who exhibit the mission and values of Franciscan Alliance – compassion for those in need, respect for life and the dignity of mankind, wellness and prevention of illness, restoration to health and acceptance of death as the final step toward wholeness. Recipients also have demonstrated courtesy, the proper attitude and enthusiasm for the work.
McCray, of Michigan City, was nominated by fellow employees, who said he “really loves his job and working with the different people each day.”
McCray said he was shocked and honored to be recognized for his efforts.
When he’s not working, McCray enjoys cooking as a hobby.
In recognition of his honor, McCray, as are all Ambassador recipients, was honored with a special billboard display for the month, a privileged parking spot, an Ambassador badge holder, a photo on the Ambassador of the Month wall that displays the previous 12 months’ winners, $150 cash and an invitation to the annual Service Awards and Recognition Banquet that takes place in May.
