You want to say thank you. We can help.
Patients and their loved ones often ask, "How can I express my gratitude to my caregivers?" Maybe it was the compassionate expertise of a nurse, the life-saving care of a physician or an unexpected act of kindness from support staff that made a difference.
Sharing your appreciation is a powerful way to acknowledge their impact and transform your gratitude into a meaningful act that can bring comfort and purpose during pivotal moments.
Whether you want to celebrate a special caregiver or share your story with others, Grinnell Regional Medical Center Foundation collaborates closely with healthcare teams to ensure your appreciation is conveyed in the most meaningful way.

Here are some ways to express your gratitude for the care you or a loved one received:

Make a Gift in Honor of a Caregiver
Recognize a caregiver or unit with a gift through the Grateful Patient & Family Program in their honor. Your gesture of appreciation not only deeply touches those you recognize but also supports vital care for patients and families, empowers dedicated care teams and provides essential resources for equipment, research and education.

Make a Gift in Honor of a Loved One
Recognize a loved one with a gift made in their name. Your heartfelt tribute in celebration of this cherished individual will leave a lasting positive impact on the health and well-being of others. Learn more about memorial giving.
