One patient's daughter received care in the behavioral health department and then transitioned to outpatient care for Electroconvulsive Therapy (ECT), which the family credits with saving her life. She had been struggling with severe depression and anxiety, but is now described as a "normal girl" again. Another patient stayed at the facility for seven days and received care for a serious condition that had caused significant fluid retention. They had 11 liters of fluid removed from their abdomen and lost a total of 40 pounds. The patient praised the caring nurses and doctors, including Yocelyn, Guadalupe, Luna, Kaitlyn, and five unnamed doctors. The patient suggested hiring a Master Chef to add more flavor to the cafeteria food, which they found to be a bit bland. A third patient had two positive experiences in the gastro department's ER, highlighting the kindness and competence of the staff, particularly a nurse named Barb. The patient expressed gratitude for Barb's ability to keep them comfortable during uncomfortable procedures.
