I really appreciated her willingness to go above and beyond.
Deana Walker, a patient menu technician at DRH, is recognize by Jessica Crable Hartman.
"I found myself in a bind this evening. I am a pharmacist for Duke Home Infusion and had a patient's mother call frantically, because she ran out of formula for her child. We were currently out of stock of the formula that was needed, and could not get more in for the weekend. I spoke with Deana in Dietary Services at Durham Regional Hospital. She was so helpful and let me borrow some to get to my patient in time. I really appreciated her willingness to go above and beyond."
