Sunflower Honoree Recipient Announced

A heartfelt congratulations to our Sunflower Honoree recipient, Brian Foreman, PharmD. Brian is a pharmacist who exemplifies Witham’s commitment to excellence and personalized care.

The Sunflower program at Witham is used to recognize extraordinary care and service provided by non-nursing staff. Sunflower Award nominees personify Witham's remarkable patient experience. These staff members consistently demonstrate excellence through their expertise and extraordinary compassionate care. They are recognized as outstanding role models in our Witham community.

Below is an excerpt from Brian's nomination:

A patient needed a very rare & expensive medication. This med was not immediately available at St. Vincent or Witham. Within only a few hours, Brian had contacted his superiors, the hospital pharmacy procurement organization and the manufacturer. He arranged for the medication to be delivered by 0230 that next morning. It is VERY difficult to access this drug as it is rarely used, extremely expensive, and would have required enormous effort to obtain so quickly. The patient received the medication and is now recovering. Brian always goes out of his way to provide care to the patients. One of the most compassionate and conscientious pharmacists I’ve ever met. We are all fortunate and privileged to have him as a colleague.

Brian, thank you so much for being who you are and providing such great care to patients here at Witham!
