Nominee: Tracy Batley

Tracy Batley

Nominated by: Marci Schmatt

I would like to commend one of our clerical staff members, Tracy Batley, on her welcoming demeanor and commitment to patient/donor safety. She demonstrates her commitment to patient and donor safety but performing proper patient identification and arm band placement, which is an exceedingly important role in the care of our patients/donors. Great to have you on our team!

How long have you been working in Pathology?
Since December of 2024.

What do you enjoy about working here?
I like being in the workforce after being retired for four years. It’s given me the opportunity to meet people and learn new skills.

What made you decide to become a professional?
There was an opening, and my son knew a bit about the area, so I decided to apply.

What are some of your hobbies outside of work?
I recently have gotten back into crochet. In the future, I would like to try making Ukrainian Eggs again. I made them high school and enjoyed it.

What is your dream vacation?
I want to see more national monuments and nature spots. I would love to visit the Yellowstone Park and Alaska someday. I would like visit Scotland someday to because I found out my ancestry is mostly Scottish.

What is your favorite movie?
Castaway with Tom Hanks.

If money was not a factor, what other profession would you choose?
I would be a world travel guide so I can go to all the wonderful places the world has to offer.
