Sparrow Spotlight!

Erica Swift, a medical receptionist at Charlotte 111 Primary Care at UM Health-Sparrow Eaton, noticed something was very wrong with a patient checking in for an appointment. She sprang into action, alerting staff and helping get him in a wheelchair for an exam. It turns out he was having a heart attack.

Erica’s quick action may have helped save the patient’s life.

“I just like helping people, so I wanted to do health care because it’s always something different and … you help someone every day in whatever way they need,” she said.

Erica is among those who goes the extra mile to save lives and ensure every family receives the compassionate care they deserve. That’s one of the reasons she’s the latest Sparrow Spotlight.

Thank you, Erica, for everything you do!

Meet Colin Stroh, a child life specialist at Mott!

Child life specialists help patients prepare for procedures, often by utilizing a wide array of developmentally appropriate tools and techniques to calm fears, soothe anxiety and encourage children to express their feelings. This may include using books or pictures to explain a procedure, showing kids the medical equipment that’ll be used, and/or the rehearsal of a surgery to help a child cope.

Thank you, Colin -- and all of our child life specialists -- for all you do!
