Looking to make an impact with your career? Seahawks linebacker Boye Mafe recently honored St. Francis Hospital’s healthcare providers with a “Crucial Catch” game ball for their vital role in early cancer detection. Through our partnership with the Seahawks, we bring life-saving screenings and education to the community, like the 19 PSA screenings conducted at a recent game—five of which indicated high PSA levels, an early marker for prostate cancer. Dr. Mitsuyama emphasizes, “Early detection can greatly improve outcomes.” Join a team committed to making a difference in people’s lives, both on and off the field! #HealthcareHeroes #CrucialCatch #EarlyDetection #VMFH

Congratulations to Frencel Calayag, RN, on receiving the DAISY Award at St. Francis Hospital! ?? Your commitment to exceptional patient care and compassion truly sets you apart. Here’s the heartfelt nomination from a grateful patient: “Nurse Frencel has been very caring, kind, welcoming, compassionate and caring when we welcomed our baby girl at 35 weeks. We were scared and tired but she made us feel like we were in good hands including our baby. She showed us that patients are important for her even though we were asking and requesting many things from her. She has been very helpful and professional. Too bad she was off when we got discharged to personally thank her. She deserves to be recognized for her services." Thank you, Frencel, for making a difference every day! ?? #DAISYAward #PatientCare #HealthcareHeroes #VMFH
