Think of it as a huge virtual hug.

Patients often ask how they can thank the people who have cared for them at Wellstar. So, we created the Honor Your CareGiver Program — a meaningful way to recognize the individuals, doctors, nurses, housekeepers, volunteers and other team members who made an exceptional difference for you.

How to thank a World-Class Caregiver:

Make a gift to Honor Your CareGiver

Select "I would like to dedicate this gift" and input the name of your Honored CareGiver

Leave a message of gratitude for your caregiver in the comment box

When you donate to Wellstar Foundation in honor of your caregiver, you have the opportunity to send a note of gratitude to your caregiver and we will recognize the recipient with a pin and certificate acknowledging them as an Honored CareGiver in front of their peers.

There’s no better way to say “thank you.” Your tax-deductible donation will be put into immediate action helping Wellstar continue to improve and expand care – all in the name of the caregiver who made a difference in your life.

"Thank you for taking such great care of me when my life was turned upside down by a massive stroke. Dr. Gupta saved my life, and the OT/PT team got me back to living my life. Hugs to all of you!

Timothy Oswald, MD

"Thank you, Dr. Oswald! You came running to help our son Ayan when he fractured his leg at a Walker Soccer Game. We will never forget your act of kindness. If it weren’t for you reducing it in the field he would have not been better this quickly."
