You are what people see when they arrive here.

Yours are the eyes they look into when they’re frightened and lonely

Yours are the voices people hear when they ride the elevators and when they try to sleep and when they try to forget their problems.

You are what they hear on their way to appointments that could affect their destinies and what they hear after those appointments.

Yours are the comments people hear when you think they can’t.

Yours is the intelligence and caring that people hope they’ll find here.

If you’re noisy, so is the hospital. If you’re rude, so is the hospital. And if you’re wonderful- so is the hospital.

No visitors, no patients can ever know the real you, the you that you know is there, unless you let them see it. All they can know is what they see and hear and experience.

And so we have a stake in your attitude and in the collective attitudes of everyone who works at the hospital.

We are judged by your performance.

We are the care you give, the attention you pay,

The courtesies you extend.

Thank you for all you’re doing!
