Stories of Humankindness
Hello humankindness. It’s more than a tagline, it’s how we provide treatment and the way we treat patients. Because the way care is provided is often as meaningful as the care itself. These are a few stories of humankindness in action …

Ihra took such good care of my husband while he was in the Intermediate Care Unit. She not only took care of his medical needs but she became a liaison between his doctors, his case worker, and over saw every single detail that needed attention. She went above and beyond the usual charge nurse duties for he and I. Watching her care for Michael warmed my heart. I was touched by her assistance, her understanding, her upbeat attitude, her diligence, her dedication, and her kindness.

I received the best care available. All the nurses were wonderful, but I mention one in particular his name is Alejandro and he took such good care of me. Thank you Alejandro and all the staff you made a bad time very good.

Liz was my night nurse. She was very professional, friendly and made sure I was always comfortable. An asset to San Martin.

I came to the ER thinking I had had a stroke. They got me right in and started taking vitals and getting the pic line for meds and getting my information. They sent me to get a CT scan and ordered up an MRI. They did some physical tests and later determined that I did not have a stroke but a different medical episode. Everything was explained to me as we went along. I felt valued and that they were really concerned about me. As far as ER visits go, this was a very positive one. I was astounded at how busy they were and was told that it is like that all the time. I didn't get her name, but the ER Charge nurse is a rock star. She managed the chaos expertly, ensuring that everyone got what they needed.

Dr. Bregman certainly knew what to do with my feet. He corrected major problems with both feet. I am without pain now after 25 years! The nursing staff was phenomenal! They are so kind and attentive!

Dr. Eisert is an exceptional doctor. He makes me feel so comfortable and he truly cares about his patients. Although he did not deliver my second baby due to him not being on call, he did come and check on my well being the following day I delivered my baby. He makes sure I am taken cared of, listens to my concerns, and truly is compassionate. Please don’t ever change Dr. Eisert! The world needs more doctors like you.

I can’t begin to express how truly blown away by the entire staff and experience I had at St. Rose Hospital!! Not one time was I not treated with passion and care from start to finish. I came to have an angiogram not thinking I would need more than a stent or two. When I was told I needed triple bypass surgery, I kind of freaked out. But because everyone made me feel important to them, I went into a bad situation with a hopeful & positive feeling. The surgery went smoothly and my recovery staff was awesome!! Thank you to everyone who took a very scary situation into a great experience!! You’re all my saints and I thank you from the bottom of my now healthier heart!!

Your care and personal attention for me when I was so sick was amazing! You were such an advocate for my wellbeing. I felt you truly cared for me and helped me get the medicine I needed to start healing. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. Food Services Specialist - The fellow that brought me my meals was so kind and caring, he even changed a meal just for me. Way to go, keep up the good work!! :)

Jodi and Will helped me tremendously with their very professional and kind care. I had a lot going on and they both went out of their way to care for me in every respect. Their care speaks volumes about St. Rose. Thank you.

Thank you God for our cherished Adrian sisters, who upon arriving via train in Las Vegas, and despite their fears and anxieties, stepped off the train and stayed and baked their “angel bread.” They sold loaves of bread to raise money for medical supplies and for a place to care for workers in need of medical help; just look at where we are today with our hospitals! I pray everyday for our beloved Adrian sisters and our numerous staff who work relentlessly to care for thousands of patients who enter our doors for medical help, every single day! This is not just a story, but a true miracle of life saving efforts from all of you!

Not one, but TWO, life saving visits to St. Rose Siena. The ER, Dr. Lipman and staff saved my double transplant brother who came in with pneumonia and sepsis. His kidney and pancreas were saved after two weeks in ICU, went home and back to Chicago where he had 21 years post transplant. Two years ago, I presented at the ER with AFib and a flutter. Immediate cath, MRI, and a cardiogram saved me from a stroke & heart attack. Dr. Wood and Dr. Atif and staff. Thank you for being here.

I was admitted to Dignity Health San Martin Campus. I had exceptional care in both the ER and the 2nd floor. I do not remember the names of the night staff in the ER except for Carl but everyone there was excellent. On the 2nd floor, all of the nurses were great and Drs. Igtiben, Dr. Trent Richardson, and Dr. Ashraf Mohammed showed caring concern and were highly appreciated. They were excellent.
-
Your positive attitude and rapt attention were consistent for 7 days.
-
I was admitted to the Emergency Dept. at your hospital. I just want to thank all the medical staff for your most comforting and professional help to me. I found all the personnel there to be very kind and sweet which made my time there very calming under the circumstances. Thank you to all of you and may God bless you in your profession.

When you are sick and in the hospital, it is nice when the staff makes you feel like family. The cardiology unit is such a place. They make you feel like home. Keep up the good work.

I would like to thank all those people who were involved with my care. Everyone was professional and kind to my husband and I. I only had an infection on the left from a surgery I received last month (at an out of town hospital). The attending care was simple but was exactly what I needed so it would not become anything very serious. Thanks again.
-
I appreciate Dr. Patel and the staff who assisted in my double hernia surgery. He and his team were caring and professional in their work.
-
I have nothing to say except that I received the most outstanding care from all the staffs that I’ve had encountered during my stay in the hospital. Thank you.
-
Dr. Hoer is a magnificent surgeon. His staff is as great as him. The care I had in the hospital was great, nurses were very attentive in giving me the care before and after surgery.

"The quick work of the L&D nursing team saved my family’s lives. I came within five minutes of being a single father."
-
Thank you for all the care you have given my family.

"A few weeks before my cardiac event, I had been exploring the Inca Trail at 12,000 feet in Peru. If I had had my myocardial infarction there, I would not be relating this experience. My cardiologist said I was the luckiest guy he had ever met, touched my hand, and announced that he was heading to the casino to see if any of my luck rubbed off on him."
