Sixty-one caregivers recognized through Healing Hands

Registered nurse Dexter Emoto is one of 61 caregivers at Loma Linda University Health honored by grateful patients in 2014.

Healing Hands is a program through which grateful patients and families can give a philanthropic gift in honor of a physician or staff member. Gifts may be of any amount (no minimum or maximum) and directed to the area of their choice. Honored staff members are then presented with a Healing Hands pin and notified of the patient’s gift at their departmental staff meeting.

This year, 61 physicians, nurses and support staff have been recognized by patients through this program.
