Vail Health created the Elevate Award in June 2022 to give patients and their families an opportunity to nominate and thank employees who have touched their lives in some way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Dr. Grafals was nominated by Susan Scott of Gypsum, CO, for the care provided to her late husband, David Scott, both during and after his kidney transplant. David was a teacher, coach, athletic director, and administrator at Eagle Valley High School for nearly 30 years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cMy husband, David, was well known in our community for his creativity in teaching and exceptional coaching. He was a great father and put family, faith, and love of school and community as a priority each day,\u201d said Susan. \u201cMonica Grafals was kind but firm, loving but realistic, smart, and relatable. She made Dave laugh but still made sure he understood the overwhelming process he was going to go through.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Dr. Grafals was a provider at UCHealth in Denver, where Dave received a new kidney donated by Heidi McCollum, District Attorney for the entire 5th Judicial District of Eagle County.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cDave&#8217;s transplant was successful. Heidi and Dave were both on the mend,\u201d said Susan. \u201cWhen we got home, we had several appointments set up. Dave was sad not to have Dr. Grafals by his side anymore, but the entire community was cheering him on, and he remained positive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One day, we had an appointment at Colorado Mountain Medical in Avon, Colorado. Dave heard her laughter before she walked in. As Monica Grafals walked into her new office, Dave was greeted with her cheerful smile and hugs. His beloved doctor was there.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Because Dr. Grafals had taken a new job in the community, both Dave and Susan were able to see her regularly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cDr. Grafals continued to encourage him, give wise advice, and help him realistically understand his declining health with compassion. She encouraged him to continue enjoying life while being honest about his prognosis,\u201d said Susan. \u201cDave lived a much longer life because of her incredible skills as a doctor, her ability to help him reflect on the blessings he already had, and her gift for treating him as the most important patient among all her many other patients. Everyone who meets her feels this way.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One year after Dave\u2019s passing, Susan nominated Dr. Grafals for the exceptional care that allowed him additional time to experience his daughter\u2019s wedding, meet his grandchildren, spend precious time with them, family and friends.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cMy entire family is thankful for this opportunity (to nominate her),\u201d said Susan. \u201cEveryone in our community needs to celebrate her exceptional skills. She is exceptional, and we love her like family.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Elevate Award directly aligns with Vail Health\u2019s mission of elevating health across our mountain communities.
