“In the past month, I have had to bring my friend in twice for angiograms. Each time he has been on the Cardiovascular Unit on the 2nd floor at St. Mary Medical Center. I cannot compliment the hospital and your staff enough. The care he has received is exemplary and far surpasses anything I have seen at other hospitals I have visited. The two nurses I remember most clearly are Jamie and April. Both girls are friendly, knowledgeable and very professional. They relate well to their patients and even better to each other. It put us both at ease to see nurses who genuinely respect one another and work as a team. We later learned April is "the boss". You would have never known by the way she jumps in the trenches with her staff and has no false pride or 'better than you' attitude. Not only did these girls make sure that my friend was taken care of, they also took the time to see that my needs were met. My friend and I couldn't have asked for better care. You should be very proud of your staff. They are the reason people want to return. Thank you 2nd floor Cardiovascular Unit staff!”
“I needed therapy after having broken my ankle in January. I just cannot compliment Tina enough for all her help and concern in helping me get back to walking normal and helping the tenderness of the nerves in my ankle. Not only did she help me but her cheerful attitude and outgoing, friendly personality made me feel so at ease and comfortable that I really enjoyed and looked forward to each of my sessions and was sorry, in a way, to see it end. She is very professional and at the same time she makes people feel welcome and very relaxed. I would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone I know that is in need of therapy. Keep up the good work Tina and, St. Mary, you have a really outstanding employee!”

“Arlene, I just wanted to let you know that so far everything is going well here at home. Cindi's taking good care of me. I called Dr. Streeter's office today and they said I can start eating soft foods, Yeah! :) Thanks for everything you've done.”

“My father Jose passed away Sat the 10th after being on both the 2nd and 5th floors. Your nursing staff on both floors helped to make those last few days very comfortable for my family and friends. They brought us coffee, pitchers of water, juice and snacks. They would check up on us to see if we needed anything else. I know it's their job, but it was their genuine concern that was very touching. The night my father passed away I had to bring my mother back to the hospital and your security was very nice and helpful. One of them brought a wheelchair for my mother and took her straight to the room. That was very nice of him. That night was very hard for my family. Also thank you to Liza that came to the memorial service on behalf of the staff and Dr Montero. She was very nice and said Jose was her favorite. That was very kind and appreciated. I thank you and your staff for everything they have done; hats off to you. Thank you.”

“My husband was in an industrial accident which left him with third degree burns on the lower half of his entire body. After spending a month at another hospital in Chicago for the burns he was then admitted to St Mary's Rehab Center in Hobart, Indiana on January 14, 2010, for rehabilitation. The entire staff was tremendous! He had round the clock care with caring experts. Thank you to all in the rehab center!”

“My friend was recently admitted to your hospital and in all of my 81 years, I have never been treated better as a visitor. Mrs. G. M. was admitted first to the ICU and then 2 West. Every question was answered as politely as I have ever experienced. I have a service dog and asked permission to bring him in. Though it took a little bit of time, it was done in a proper and expedient way. She was pleased, and so was I. KUDOS”

“I have never experienced any surgery in my 63 years when I was told I needed a total hip replacement for my osteoarthritis. My surgery was in late November 2009. All of the staff involved with the Joint Academy at St. Mary Medical Center in Hobart were excellent. They showed compassion, concern and were extremely helpful. I highly recommend this facility for its quality care.”

“I wanted to say thank you to some of the best nurses I have ever met!! In having to come for an angiogram, I was very frightened and extremely nervous. I had even made out my will, just in case I didn't make it back. In arriving at the CVU at St. Mary's I was greeted by 3 beautiful, happy, smiling faces. Jaime, April, and Kate. They were humorous yet professional and put me at ease immediately. April started my IV flawlessly and was very reassuring in explaining the procedure. Jaime, April and Kate made sure I was taken care of before and after the procedure, getting me anything I asked for, always with a smile. I'm sure these girls were very busy, but they made me feel like I was their only patient and their top priority!! I couldn't have asked for better nurses or care. They truly were exceptional and I would recommend St. Mary's and these girls to everyone. THANK YOU AGAIN!”

“I was hospitalized for surgery and was feeling very emotional and anxious. I had not had surgery before and was not prepared for some aspects of recovery - catheter, pain, etc. Warren took the time to explain the recovery process in great detail. His demeanor was very calming and patient, which helped me feel a lot better about the procedure, recovery, and what I could expect after leaving the hospital. I also felt very comfortable asking him any questions I had. He is truly a wonderful nurse!”
