Fort Lauderdale, Fla.-based Holy Cross Health has launched the Healing Heroes program for donors, families and patients to recognize caregivers, nurses, physicians and other healthcare employees for their care.
Holy Cross Health is a member of Livonia, Mich.-based Trinity Health.
“Some of the most powerful moments in healthcare happen quietly, at the bedside or during a simple conversation,” Laura Denoux, vice president and chief development officer at Holy Cross Health, said in a May 1 news release shared with Becker’s. “The Healing Heroes program shines a light on those moments and gives patients a way to turn their appreciation into something enduring.”
Holy Cross Health has received more than 40 tribute gifts from patients and families through the program. The funds will help advance the hospital’s mission to provide care in the area it serves.
Donations may be given in any amount to areas of the hospital, including heart and vascular, cancer, neurosciences, orthopedics, medical equipment, technology and its Institute for Nursing Excellence.
