FV has become a special mark in the career of Mr Nguyen Quang Tung, who has been dedicated to the hospital for over 21 years. With the March FV Shining Star award, once again, it has ‘highlighted’ his contributions, after receiving the award once before, along with numerous other nominations.

For Mr Tung, as an electrical and mechanical technician, the most impressive aspect at FV is the design of the building. From the first day of construction until today, FV remains a modern facility and a very desirable workplace for him. “I know exactly every place of FV, what equipment commonly has issues and how to resolve them, all of which I specifically remember,” Mr Tung shared.

The FV building is like a grown-up child, nurtured by Mr Tung and many other members of the Building Maintenance Department, “nourished” for over 20 years. Maintaining the building’s mechanical and electrical systems is not just a part of his job, but also relates to the health and safety of thousands of people, especially patients. These “self-reminders” have given meaning and motivation to Mr Tung’s work throughout those years.

Mr Tung is praised by colleagues for being sociable and cheerful, always ready to support and guide when needed. One aspect of his personality has helped many new staff, especially younger individuals integrate easily into work at FV, as well as with various groups within the hospital. Thinking about the FV Shining Star award, he hopes the award will be provided more for younger members of the FV Family to give them a chance to shine, bring necessary recognition and encouragement.

When talking about the future, Mr Tung knows: “I haven’t planned the day I leave my job at FV, but my desire is to work for as long as possible.” Despite experiencing ups and downs throughout his career at FV, he rarely harbours difficulties in his mind, always remembering successful times or cherished individuals. The joy of 22 years dedicated to work, to the hospital, is perhaps very simple yet profound for Mr Tung.

Once again, congratulations to Mr Nguyen Quang Tung for another FV Shining Star award. We wish him good health to continue the journey of creating practical values, through silent yet immensely important work maintaining a hospital safe for everyone.
