Thanks for working here Thursday: Brenda Lanz-Dedman, CHUC, CCMH Maternal Child Services

Campbell County Health is proud of its employees, and we want the CCH family and the Campbell County community to know about the good work that they do for this organization.

Meet Brenda Lanz-Dedman, a Certified Health Unit Coordinator (CHUC) for Maternal Child Services at Campbell County Memorial Hospital (CCMH). As a unit secretary, Brenda helps document physician orders, prepares patient treatment charts, updates patient information and helps with other clerical needs on the floor. Brenda’s colleagues will tell you that she always has a smile on her face, and is a pleasure to interact with.

Brenda has worked for CCH for 35 years! Prior to moving to Gillette, Brenda worked at three hospitals in South Dakota for a total of seven years, which gives her 42 years of working in health care. Brenda was inspired to work in health care because she has always enjoyed caring for people as well as always loved babies and children; in fact, she has five children and 11 grandchildren.

Brenda calls Tracy Wasserburger her health care hero. “Tracy is so amazing and such an inspiration. She is the one who keeps me coming back to work every day,” says Brenda.

Outside of work, Brenda says that she enjoys spending time with her family and grandkids, gardening, camping, fishing. Her husband, Darryl, and her love to spend time in the mountains.

We asked Brenda what she enjoys most about working at CCH, as well as what excellence every day means to her. Check out her response:

“I am very proud to work in the Maternal Child department. I’ve formed some great bonds and friendships with people. We have such a great crew of nurses and doctors.

To me, excellence every day is greeting everyone with a smile, looking them in the eye and saying hello. It means that I’m doing my best every day.”

Thank you, Brenda for taking such great care of our patients. We’re proud to have you on our team.
