The annual award honors a clinical staff member at the School of Medicine who exemplifies professionalism, teamwork and compassionate patient care while demonstrating an ongoing commitment to exceeding job responsibilities and creating a positive work environment. “Jill is clearly making a difference in the lives of the patients in the Breast Health Center and stands out as an exemplary role model for physicians and staff here at the medical school,” Crane says. “Washington University is fortunate to have Jill as a member of our team, and it is most appropriate that she be recognized for her dedication and outstanding performance.”
