Important Stats
Every Story Matters
“Seeing how hard my staff work for our patients is truly a blessing. For the longest time, we were the only partial hospitalization level of care on the behavioral health service line. To see how families transition from all our levels of care down to a patient going off to college and being successful is a great feeling.”
“I help to support families who are managing a diagnosis of epilepsy. 1 in 26 people in their lifetime will have epilepsy and it looks different for everyone. Many people think that epilepsy is debilitating and that someone who has seizures can’t function the same way as someone who doesn’t. And that’s not true. We encourage our families to have their child continue doing the same things that any other child would be able to do. They have to take their medicine every day and take certain precautions, but they can be a normal kid.”
“Our department feeds the entire hospital and we take great pride in doing so. I love knowing that we are helping people when it comes to providing fresh meal options so that everyone can eat healthy and stay safe.”
