A peer recognition program

Above & Beyond

For the moments others miss — the sharp pickup, the covered shift, the family thanked for the first time.

How it works

Five categories. Five colors. Earned by nomination.

Any ED staff member at Castleview or NNRH can nominate any colleague — nurse, tech, physician, RT, registration. Nominations are reviewed monthly. Recognized staff receive a colored sticker on their badge backer marking the category earned.

Clinical

Sharp pickup, save, code run cleanly

Team

Covered, carried, supported a colleague

Patient

Family praise, went beyond the task

Service

Sustained dedication, reliable presence

Mentor

Taught, guided, improved a process

Nominate

Recognize a colleague.

It takes about 90 seconds. Be specific — the story is what makes the recognition real.

Which site

Who are you nominating

Start typing — pick a suggested name if it appears, so repeat nominations match. Don't see them? Just type the name.

What happenedReviewers see this verbatim. Specifics make the recognition land; generic praise doesn't.

When did this happen

HIPAA reminder.Do not include patient names, MRNs, room numbers, chief complaints, diagnoses, or other identifying details. Describe the staff action, not the patient. If the family wrote in, summarize the sentiment — don't quote identifying language.

Your information

Used only if a reviewer needs context. Not shared with the nominee.
