A Home for Heroes

Investing in a new Physician’s Lounge for our dedicated doctors

Being a doctor is often a 24-hour-a-day job, especially at a hospital like Providence Holy Cross Medical Center that strives to deliver a higher level of clinical excellence. Our amazing trauma surgeons, ER physicians, anesthesiologists, neonatologists and many other physicians are routinely required to extend shifts, sometimes as long as 48 hours.

In many ways, the hospital is their home away from home. So it’s critical for the hospital to provide a comfortable and welcoming space where they can rest during extended on-site shifts.

To support the doctors who support our mission, Providence Holy Cross Medical Center launched an initiative to build a new Physician’s Lounge that will give them a place to unwind, get some sleep, grab a snack and take time to care for themselves so they can care for others.

Our new Physician’s Lounge will feature a kitchen, a Sleep Pod, a spacious living area and other creature comforts. Brand-new computers linked to the hospital network will also allow doctors to stay connected to their patients even as they decompress.

Ongoing support for this and other projects aimed at creating a nurturing environment for our physicians and caregivers is welcomed.
