Ms O'Neill has worked at Moree Hospital for the past 13 years, since 2006, and loves being able to help people.

"The thing I enjoy most about my job is being in a position to help other people," she said.

"My job provides me an opportunity to put that basic urge to use for a purpose. I also enjoy having the pleasure to work with a great group of people every day."

Ms O'Neill was nominated for the April Customer Service Appreciation Award by Margaret Dennis, who said she was a credit to Moree Hospital.

"Amy was very helpful with my brother, who has a disability," Ms Dennis said.

"When he came to Moree from Inverell, Amy arranged for Kevin to have his pre-operative assessment at Inverell so it was easier for him. Amy always rang me to let me know what was happening."

Moree Thumbs Up Thumbs Down administrator Tanya Fitch recently presented Ms O'Neill with her award.

Ms O'Neill said she was honoured to receive the award and join past recipients "who have also been recognised in our community for their wonderful achievements".

"I would like to say a huge thank you to Margaret Dennis who nominated me" she said.

"Receiving the award is a great honour and this award particularly recognises my work and it gives an amazing feeling of getting awarded for the efforts that I put in.

"Thank you to everyone who voted for me. I really appreciate all of your support and thank you to Tanya Fitch for all her hard work in organising the monthly awards. It's nice to see someone bring to light all the positive things Moree has to show."

Voting for the May Customer Service Appreciation Award closes at 12pm on Friday, May 31.
