South County Health shares the story of Honey Meaker, a patient who experienced firsthand the compassionate care provided by our team. Her words highlight the dedication and kindness that define our approach to patient care.
A Difficult Time Made Easier
"I wanted to take a moment to express my heartfelt gratitude for the incredible care I received at South County Hospital during three visits in the last week of February. I was going through a very difficult time, battling nausea, vomiting, anxiety, and other side effects from a medication, and your team truly made a difference."
Compassion from the Very First Moment
From the moment Honey arrived at the intake desk, she was met with kindness and understanding.
"That level of care continued throughout the entire experience — starting from triage to the emergency department, and every patient care technician, nurse (Julie Brito), and doctor (Kerrilene Sinapi, DO) I interacted with was phenomenal. Forgive me for not remembering everyone's name who assisted me in navigating through a rough patch during those few days, but I would like to thank them personally and let them know who they are — truly phenomenal human beings. Healthcare is not lost when we have incredible human beings such as the ones at South County Health."
Giving Back to Those Who Gave So Much
To show her gratitude, Honey returned to the hospital with a heartfelt gesture.
"I wanted to do something to show my deep appreciation, so I came in person the following Saturday with flowers and some treats from my local bakery for the team who had made such a positive impact on me during those tough days."
A Commitment to Exceptional Care
Honey’s experience reinforced her trust in South County Hospital, solidifying it as her hospital of choice.
"Because of the love and compassion I felt, I will never go to another hospital. No one in the state provides the level of care, understanding, and truly seeing the patient the way your team does. The epic care you deliver at your hospital is completely worth the drive, and it is a beautiful one at that. I am deeply grateful for everything, and I just wanted to thank you again."
At South County Health, we are honored to provide care that makes a difference in our patients' lives. Stories like Honey’s inspire us to continue delivering compassionate, patient-centered care every day.
