You give everything to your family—but don’t forget to care for your own heart. ❤️

Heart disease is the #1 cause of death for women. Hispanic women, 50+, face even higher risks due language barriers, access to care and lack of awareness, making heart health harder to manage.

💬 Tag a woman you care about and remind her: your heart health matters.

Heart rhythm problems were the last thing Josh Smith, 58, expected to find when his smartwatch alerted him to an irregular heartbeat in November 2020. But then his naturopath noticed “something odd” during a routine checkup and suggested he see a doctor, just to be safe. ⌚

After extensive testing at another facility, Smith was diagnosed with atrial fibrillation, or AFib – a type of heart rhythm issue called arrhythmia. The diagnosis took Smith by surprise.

“At first, I had paroxysmal AFib, meaning I would bounce between a normal sinus rhythm and AFib. I didn’t really feel bad. I was still biking 25 miles a day,” says Smith. “I kept thinking, ‘How can I have a heart issue and not know it?’ I didn’t have any of the typical risk factors. I wasn’t overweight. I had no major family history of heart problems. I’m super athletic. But I guess sometimes you’re just an outlier.”

Josh's team at Providence Swedish was able to personalize a treatment plan that fit both his lifestyle and individual health needs. ❤️

➡️ Read Josh's full story here: http://provhealth.org/6189sSOJT

❣️ AFib affects more than 12 million people in the U.S. If left untreated, the condition may cause stroke, heart failure or sudden cardiac arrest. It can be difficult to get an accurate diagnosis and personalized treatment plan, but our care teams are here to help. Talk to your doctor to learn more.

Nurse Manager Therese applied to work at Providence because of her older brother and sister, who both worked in the kitchen at Providence Portland Medical Center. “They would rave about Providence and how much they liked it,” says Therese. “That made me very excited to get my first job here—and I’ve never looked back.”

She’s now been with the organization for 24 years and jokes that “pretty much grew up here.” 💫

Therese’s first job was with her siblings in the kitchen. “I got exposure to nurses while delivering trays to patients,” says Therese. “I asked a ton of questions, and I saw how happy they were with Providence. That sparked my interest in becoming a nurse.”

Therese’s brother, Tom, continues to work in the kitchen, now as Lead Food Service Attendant. “I’m able to see him every Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday. It’s a lot of fun working in the same hospital as my brother. He’s very friendly to everyone and is well liked, so it’s nice to be able to tell people we’re family.” 💙 💚

Happy to Tom and all the dedicated caregivers who ensure our patients, guests and employees are fed each and every day.

Today we celebrate our legacy and heritage by honoring Blessed Émilie Gamelin, the Foundress of the Sisters of Providence, with the Table of the King. 👑

Table of the King is celebrated by sharing a simple meal of soup 🍲🥄 and bread 🥖, modeling Émilie’s practice of serving those who were hungry at her own kitchen table with dignity.

Émilie’s care went far beyond feeding the hungry. She saw the inherent dignity of every person and offered comfort, care and compassion where it was needed most.

Our Mission today is inspired by this same spirit. Let today be a reminder to us all that even the smallest gestures can bring the community together and spark meaningful change. ✨

Since 2020, Jordy, the facility dog at Providence Santa Rosa Memorial Hospital, has provided "pawsitive" healing to patients and caregivers alike. A labrador-golden retriever mix, Jody works alongside her handler, Kathy Bellino, a retired NICU nurse from Memorial.

A graduate of the Canine Companions service dog training program, Jordy was trained to support adults, children and veterans with disabilities, as well as professionals in health care, the judicial system and educational environments. When she and Kathy are onsite, they visit patients and caregivers on every unit.

As Jordy walks down the hall physicians, nurses, technicians and housekeepers come around to say hello, scratch her head and receive some doggy love in return.

Thank you, Jordy and Kathy, for the amazing way you care for our patients!

Providence Santa Rosa Memorial Hospital’s longtime supporter Norma Person has given an extraordinary $5 million gift in memory of Evert Person to establish the Dr. John B. Reed Center for Cardiology within the Hansel Family Care Center.

If you know Dr. Reed, you’ll know there’s no one in the world more fitting for this honor. As Sonoma County’s first cardiologist, he has healed and saved countless lives and inspired a generation of physicians to lead with compassion and love.

And there’s no one more delighted to bestow this honor than Norma, who said, “Evert would be just as happy as I am to recognize Dr. Reed, who is the reason why Santa Rosa Memorial has such an outstanding heart program.”

What amazing momentum for our Caring Together Initiative. Thank you Norma, and thank you Dr. Reed!
