Nominations open for employee service awards
The Christie Miree National Alumni Association Outstanding Employee Service Awards recognize excellent service provided to students, alumni and patients.
Do you know a colleague at USA Health who exemplifies outstanding service and dedication? Now is the time to nominate him or her for the Christie Miree National Alumni Association Outstanding Employee Service Awards.
The awards recognize excellent service provided to students, alumni and patients. They are presented annually to an individual in each of these six categories: administrative, professional, technical, clerical, crafts/trades and service.
USA Health is one of four university divisions to present nominees in the six categories. The USA Health division consists of the USA College of Medicine – both clinical and non-clinical, Mitchell Cancer Institute, Student Health Center, University Hospital, Children’s & Women’s Hospital and Physicians Group practices.
The alumni association recognizes six nominees from each of the four divisions and narrows the list to the final six winners – one in each category.

- Exemplifies professionalism and dedication to excellent service and works as a team player.
