If you have been a patient at Sarasota Memorial, perhaps you can look back to when the care you received exceeded your expectations. Maybe it was kind words from a doctor or nurse, the patience of a technologist who took the time to explain a procedure, or a volunteer, housekeeper or food service staff who went the extra mile to ensure you or a loved one felt cared for. If so, you are not alone. The Give Gratitude, Grateful Patient Program gives patients and their families the opportunity to make a donation, share a memorable experience and show gratitude in a meaningful way.

Whether you choose to honor your doctor, nurse or an entire department, acknowledging them for the extraordinary care they have provided to you is a meaningful opportunity to say “thank you”. When you make a gift, the SMH caregiver or department you or honoring will receive a certificate of appreciation by the Healthcare Foundation along with your personalized note, if you choose to include one. You can honor your caregiver and Give Gratitude by visiting smhf-givegratitude.org or by contacting the Healthcare Foundation at (941)917-1286.
