Patient Experience Week 2025

PX Week Booth of Fun

1/38

Happy Patient Experience Week!

Please join us in celebrating this annual event honoring YOU,

the healthcare team members who impact the patient experience every day.

Nationally, Patient Experience (PX) Week provides a focused time for organizations

to celebrate accomplishments, re-energize efforts and honor the people who impact

patient experience. Every person at CGH makes an impact on the patient experience,

whether in direct patient care or supporting those in direct patient care.

From the moment a patient comes through our doors to the time the patient leaves,

we all have an impact on patient experience.

Thank you for all you do!

Please take some time each day to complete the challenges,

view the educational slides and videos, participate in the selfie/photo booth,
and enter to win prizes! Have fun and have a great week!

For any questions about any of the activities, contact Kaitlin Vandermyde,
Quality Improvement, at ext. 5837.

I recommend Ethan Brooks every chance I get! He is absolutely amazing. Keeps it real and allows you to be yourself. He answers questions and accepts you right where you are on your medical journey... always encouraging you to do your best, and he does his best to make this a success. The staff there are truly spectacular. They treat you with respect and care. Genuinely listen to your cares & concerns. I'd recommend Ethan Brooks and staff. 10 out of 10!!
