MercyOne Newton Medical Center is proud to recognize Craig Hudson as the organization’s latest Spirit of Mercy award winner.
MercyOne Newton, which has been part of the MercyOne family for more than five years, joins their fellow hospitals in recognizing the outstanding efforts of MercyOne caregivers in central Iowa whose professional and personal standards exemplify MercyOne’s Mission and Vision.
Hudson works in the Plant Operations department, and he is known for helping wherever needed, well outside of his vital role of equipment maintenance and facility repairs. For example, at one point when MercyOne Newton was between on-site chaplains, Hudson graciously stepped in to read aloud the hospital’s daily overhead prayer. Furthermore, he took the initiative to organize a bible study for staff members.
“He has a gracious demeanor, serving and leading in a soft-spoken, humble manner,” said Chad Kelley, Ancillary Services Director at MercyOne Newton. “And he doesn’t only offer kind words – he lives his beliefs through his actions. At one time, Craig found a homeless individual asleep in our chapel, and gave him his own pair of shoes. Craig shows us that, regardless of your role or title in the hospital, we all have the ability to offer generosity kindness and support to our patients and the most vulnerable members of our community.”
“I’d like to say thanks,” Hudson said during the recent ceremony, which was attended by his wife, daughter and parents. “When the pandemic first hit, doubt and fear and anxiety all surfaced. But you can’t let fear define you as a person. Live by faith. God is in control. Count our blessings every day.”
