Mara Barker, a pharmacy technician at University of Michigan Health-Sparrow Carson, goes out of her way to make sure patients feel at ease and cared for while picking up their prescriptions.
“I really try to bring a positive attitude with me to work,” Mara said. "If I can bring a smile to work and brighten my team members' or patients' day, then it truly makes me feel good."
From picking up extra shifts to being the go-to person for questions, Mara does everything she can to make her patients and team members feel they’re valued and supported. These are just some of the reasons why she is this month’s Sparrow Spotlight.
