With infectious enthusiasm and warmth, she has spent seven years at Children's Hospital ensuring that her young patients not only receive the best care, but that they are treated with dignity and respect. Parents appreciate this and are grateful for her commitment to keeping clear lines of communication. Patient families often write letters lauding the level of care she provides. Claypool humbly accepts this recognition and firmly believes in recognizing everyone whose performance is outstanding. Because of this, she coordinates employee recognition programs and venues to acknowledge staff members. She uses off-site outings to increase morale and a positive postings bulletin board where employees can post affirming and congratulatory post-it notes for staff achievements on and off the job.
