Plan of the Week: November 26th - December 2nd

Updated: Nov 28, 2023



Plays of the Week:


I hope everyone had an excellent Thanksgiving Weekend! Play of the week to the NICU, MICC, and Ward teams who covered during the holiday.


Play of the week to Dr. Colin McNamara and Dr. McKenzie Bowling for their performance in the 9th Annual Turkey Dash 100 yard swim. Both finished in the top 10, and Colin had the fastest time at 54.22! Both won full sized turkeys for their efforts. Great work and way to represent NCC Pediatrics!


Special thanks to Dr. Graziose, Dr. Hwang, Dr. Hawley and Dr. Weber who pulled together to ensure the MICC had continuous coverage this week after an unexpected change in coverage. Excellent work!
