Heartwarming Video: Contact Tracer Wins a Tesla

This is a heartwarming video of a contract tracer who won a Tesla last week. His reaction was filmed by his colleagues and reported by boston.com. Grab a handkerchief because if I had tears while writing this, you might be moved too.

A contact tracer in Massachusetts, Kendy Valbrun, tearfully replied that he had never won anything like this in his life upon learning that he had won a Tesla, boston.com reported. Valbrun works for Healthcare IT Leaders and his colleagues captured his reaction in the video below.

The video began with a recorded video call with Valbrun and two other contact tracers. One of the employees, who was later referred to as Alex in the video, I assume is a supervisor. The video looked like a typical employee meeting discussing the Tesla giveaway.

Alex explained that there were a lot of contest entries, but even though he had Valbrun on the call, he was willing to share with him who won.

“Everyone has been very excited about this Tesla contest. So I’ll send an update on that on Monday and look for it in your email. But I’ve got you on the phone. I mean, I’m happy to tell you who won today if you are interested.

Valbrun said yes and Alex continued:

“It’s you. You won the Tesla.

“We’re giving you a Tesla!” »

Her reaction to the news was pure emotion. You can hear her tears of joy when her supervisor said, “Kendy, we are so happy for you. We are so proud of you. We’re excited to have you working with us and for leaders in health informatics. I’m so happy for you.”

Valbrun’s fiancée, who also works with Healthcare IT Leaders, was there and was equally excited about the news.

“I’ve never won anything like this in my life, so it’s shocking,” Valbrun said.

boston.com added that Valbrun and other employees were trying to win a Tesla for referring the most new employees to the company. The article also shared a bit of Valbrun’s history and responsibilities. As a contact tracer, he must speak with people infected with Covid-19 and their close contacts in order to give them health and safety information. Her inspiration to join the business was her mother, who fought Covid-19 and won.

“My mother, who is 68, was in and out of hospital with COVID. Then, in January 2021, she went into cardiac arrest. But, thank God, we still have it with us today. She’s the reason I wanted to do this, so I can reach as many people as possible to give them the information they need.
