Our team saves lives daily by consistently cleaning, sanitizing and ensuring each patient’s experience with our facilities is clean and safe. Although much of my team’s days are spent doing what’s outlined in their job descriptions, there is one thing these folks do that truly makes them special. The Environmental Services staff consistently creates meaningful, compassionate connections with our patients and family members. Whether its being a friendly face in a stressful or intimidating situation, saying a prayer for a family experiencing tragedy, spreading laughter and cheer to clinical staff during hard times or offering a hug to a patient who longs for connection after a stay in the hospital, our team truly C.A.R.E.S. (Compassion, Accountability, Respect, Excellence, Smiles).
