It's Patient Experience Week!

Patient Experience Week is an annual observance dedicated to recognizing the efforts of healthcare professionals, volunteers, patients, and community partners in enhancing the patient experience. It highlights the importance of communication, collaboration, and compassion in healthcare, emphasizing that positive patient experiences can improve outcomes, morale, and overall satisfaction while fostering trust between patients and providers.

Our Patient and Family Advisory Council (PFAC) is an important connection to our community. The PFAC is a collaborative group of hospital staff, patients and family members. The council meets regularly with hospital staff to help identify opportunities to improve the patient and family experience.

We thank the PFAC for their service and their insights. And we thank the community for trusting us with your care.
