Patient Comments

Feedback, both positive and negative, from Samaritan Regional Health System patients about the quality of care received is very important. Negative comments identify areas for improvement, which we take to heart. Positive comments are a fitting tribute to the great talents, skills and compassion we offer the community, something for which we strive. The following comments were offered on recent Press Ganey surveys.

Radiology Comments
“The techs who completed the x-ray were great with my son. They took the time to show him parts of the x-ray - i.e. a bone, lung, heart shadow. This helped a great deal for him not to be scared. Thank You.”

“The physical space of the mammogram room is wonderful. The windows and view are beautiful and help make this particular procedure less stressful. Major kudos to the design team for creating a marvelous space.”

Inpatient Comments

“The nurse called to make sure everything was Ok a couple days after I came home. She is so knowledgeable.”

“They (staff) went way above the call of duty.”

“The doctor remained by my bedside until I was released.”

“The nurse was very professional, very helpful, and understanding. He made sure I was okay before he left. While I was in pain, I lashed out at him and he did not get mad at all. He was very understanding.”

“I appreciated the nurse. She had a caring attitude toward patients. I won't forget her face.”

“The physician was professional, down to earth and really nice.”

Emergency Department Comments

“We've been to Samaritan twice, and each time, we were treated like Royalty!”

“The Physician Assistant was great. He helped us in one visit, resolving a medical problem I've dealt with for a month. He diagnosed it and recommended treatment.
