A small moment can make a lasting difference.

During a pre-op visit, Reba met a patient who was carrying more than just nerves about surgery. She met her with kindness, a comforting hug and a simple gift that became something much bigger: a pen.

That pen turned into a reminder that someone had seen her, cared for her and helped her find strength in a hard moment.

"I went in for my pre-op appointment yesterday for my scheduled surgery. By the time I had labs drawn and an EKG, I was taken to Reba who took my vitals. When she asked, 'How is your day going?,' I broke down. It was barely 1 pm and I was so physically and mentally exhausted. She didn’t ask what’s wrong. She just gave me the biggest hug. The kind of hug that instantly gave my mind and body peace and calmness. As we went into her office to discuss surgery prep and other scary things, she gave me this pen to sign my name. She said, 'Here, you can use my good pen – and I know a good pen when I write with it.'

As we finished up in her office, she walked me out and said, 'Keep the pen. I have another one.' I turned around and gave HER a big hug. The last thing she said to me was: 'You got this – and you can do this.' I walked out of the hospital gripping that pen, not because I was just given a really good pen. But because this pen was now a reminder that I can do hard things. It’s also a reminder that sometimes, we all just need a hug and a reminder that everything is going to be okay."

Reba’s compassion is a beautiful example of the care we strive to give every person who walks through our doors. It is in the quiet gestures, the gentle words and the human connection that patients often feel most supported.

Congratulations, Reba, on your DAISY Award recognition. Thank you for showing how kindness can help someone feel calmer, stronger and ready to face what comes next.

During Healthcare Risk Management Week, we’re thankful for Ben and Rodney at AdventHealth Redmond. Their work helps protect patients and team members, strengthen safe practices, and support the kind of care that lets people focus on healing with greater confidence and peace of mind.

In their own words:

"My journey in Risk Management is rooted in personal experience. Watching my own family navigate an adverse event as a child showed me the lasting impact healthcare can have on lives. It strengthened my commitment to creating safer systems, supporting our caregivers, and ensuring every patient receives the safest care possible. As Romans 12:10 tells us, 'Be devoted to one another in love. Honor one another above yourselves.'" ‭‭— Ben Rigas, Director, Risk Management Operations

"I chose to work in Risk Management and Patient Advocacy because I genuinely care about people and want to make a difference when they need it most. I believe everyone deserves to feel heard, valued, and supported, especially during difficult times. Being able to help patients and families find answers, navigate challenges, and feel less alone is what makes this work so meaningful to me." — Rodney Beal, Patient Advocate

We are grateful for the way they serve our hospital and our community every day!
