win,” said Joslyn Creech, Gallatin VA Clinic Nurse Manager. “We only serve a small portion of the community yet the care we provide to Veterans touches almost everyone from families to

neighbors to the whole community. We have a really good crew here, and the staff all really care about the community and services we provide.” This year, 9,800 people cast 373,492 votes

across five different categories: community, flavor, medical services, retail, and general services. A total of 471 finalists were named in all categories with three finalists competing for

Dücker, VA Tennessee Valley Healthcare System Executive Director. “Ninety-three percent of Veterans trust us for their care, so without that, this award could not be possible. This
