Having a friendly, skilled team of health care providers can help make that experience a more positive one. Such was the case for Ralph Backes of Sheboygan Falls and his family. Ralph passed away last April at Aurora Sheboygan Memorial Medical Center. He had been a patient at the Aurora Dialysis Center in Sheboygan for more than a year before his death. Ralph’s daughter, Chris, is a caregiver at Aurora Sheboygan Clinic where she works as a data analysis coordinator. The Backes family recently demonstrated what it means to care for others, even for strangers, by providing a gift to honor the memory of their late father and husband. Ralph’s wife, Doris, recalls the genuine kindness of staff and their commitment to treating the entire person, not just the disease. “Ralph received dialysis treatment with the utmost care and friendliness,” said Doris. “The staff not only kept the medical concerns of patients in mind, but showed concern for their diets and mental health as well.” She added, “I always felt that Ralph was treated just as they would have treated someone from their own family. The staff also showed great compassion for our family.” Chris, too, remembers the friendliness of staff. “They would always joke around with my dad – something he enjoyed very much,” said Chris. “As family members, we always felt welcome. I would often stop down on my lunch break to see my dad during his treatment. He was there three times a week for about three hours each time.” During the course of Ralph’s treatments, Doris had noticed that other patients would often become chilled when having to sit for hours while the machines cleansed their kidneys. “From previous experience, we knew how comforting a warm blanket could be for patients,” she said. When Ralph passed away, family members decided to express their gratitude to the staff at the Aurora Dialysis Center in a special way. They requested that any memorial gifts be directed to the Aurora Health Foundation Planetree Fund (a fund supporting patient-centered care) to help purchase a blanket warmer for the Aurora Dialysis Center. “The memorial gifts to honor my father, together with other gifts from Ralph Backes the Planetree Fund, helped the Aurora Dialysis Center obtain the blanket warmer to enhance the patient experience,” explained Chris. “Caregivers who support the fund may not realize that monies can be directed toward specific items, such as the blanket warmer, helping patients right here in our hometown area. Caregiver support is vital to helping our hospital and clinics obtain the items they need.” “Our family was grateful for the care my husband received,” Doris added. “We’re happy we could help fulfill the wish of obtaining a blanket warmer. It’s our hope other patients who find dialysis as their lifeline will enjoy being warmed during their treatments, as well as enjoying the personal warmth they’ll receive from the wonderful, caring staff.”
