Anesthesia Tech Kelly Urquico recently received the Texas Children’s Hospital West Campus “Best of the West” employee recognition award.
The award is given out quarterly to employees who go above and beyond their normal job responsibilities.
Urquico joined Texas Children’s in February 2011 just as the organization was preparing to open the West Campus. He has been instrumental in the success of West Campus’ surgical services and is described by his colleagues as being diligent, willing to take on additional tasks without being asked, and helpful to all of his co-workers, including those outside his department.
“Kelly is passionate about his job, assists in training other employees, and consistently acts as a resource for the Perioperative Services Team,” said Michelle-Riley Brown, president of Texas Children’s Hospital West Campus. “He takes great pride in his work and always has a great attitude.”
