Cook Children's Hand Therapist Receives FIGS Future Icons Grant

We would like to send a huge congratulations to Alex Hussey, OTR, MOT, hand therapist at Cook Children's, for being one of 10 recipients of the FIGS Future Icons Grant. Of the 10 winners, Alex is the only therapist and in her award application video, she highlights pediatric occupational therapy and hand therapy. It is a great representation of what she does every day and how she works to improve the lives of all of her patients.

Please watch the video below as Alex shares more about her career and the legacy she wants to leave behind in the health care field and beyond.

Congratulations once again Alex!

Through our various communications channels, including our newest Focus Newsroom, Internal Communications shares and promotes the awards/recognition that Cook Children’s earns (organizationally, departmentally, individually) from external associations and from internal programs, such as Peak Performers and DAISY awards. We believe that employee engagement is strengthened through telling the stories of our employees and making the connections their roles have with our Promise, patients, families and peers, such as through the weekly #WeAreCooksChildrens feature.
