The Grateful Patient Program
The Southcoast Health Grateful Patient program offers you and your family a meaningful way to recognize the outstanding care provided by our dedicated team of healthcare professionals. From nurses and doctors to staff at every level across the Southcoast Health system, your caregivers go above and beyond to provide exceptional, personalized care.
Say Thank You in a Meaningful Way
The Grateful Patient Program offers a meaningful way to honor those who made a special impact on your healthcare experience.
A donation can be made to Southcoast Health in the name of a staff member or team who went above and beyond to ensure you had the best experience possible. These donations made by Grateful Patients, recognize our employees as Southcoast Stars. Our Southcoast Stars are then given special recognition to celebrate and highlight the exceptional care they delivered.
