To cure sometimes. To relieve often. To comfort always.<br />
This is the Motto of West Jefferson Medical Center, the one our hospital family lives by.<br />
Today, and proudly for the third year in a row upon this honor, we wish to publicly<br />
acknowledge the members of our hospital family for the quality care and comfort provided<br />
to our patients at West Jefferson Medical Center community hospital and health system year<br />
round. Thank you, employees, doctors, Board of Directors, volunteers, and business partners.<br />
Our community, our patients and their loved ones express gratitude and admiration for<br />
your compassion and skills in ordinary times. During and since Hurricane <strong>Katrina</strong>, it has<br />
been our pleasure to respond to the many individuals and groups who commend your<br />
extraordinary work especially during that immediate crisis and throughout these days,<br />
weeks and months following. Some of those compliments came locally and others nationally<br />
and internationally. We join them in saluting your professionalism, resolve and optimism in<br />
the face of the community’s worst natural disaster in our collective memory. You made a<br />
positive difference in the lives of the more than 50,000 persons for whom we have offered<br />
care or comfort since the storm.<br />
Our patients choose West Jefferson Medical Center for their healthcare needs with confidence<br />
secure in the knowledge that quality care will be delivered by a staff dedicated to giving<br />
their best. Your bright spirit, your abilities and your belief in our motto contribute greatly to<br />
West Jefferson Medical Center being one of the <strong>New</strong> <strong>Orleans</strong> Publishing Group’s Top 10 Best<br />
Places to Work in our region. Congratulations! We appreciate that <strong>New</strong> <strong>Orleans</strong> <strong>City</strong><br />
<strong>Business</strong> also recognizes your commitment.<br />
Today, we thank you for naming West Jefferson Medical Center as the place you call home<br />
and the team you call family.<br />
Sincerely,<br />
