Comprehensive, Compassionate Care: A Family’s Journey with Memorial Health System
 Updated on August 21, 2023
Looking back on their mother’s time with Memorial Health System in December 2023, sisters Kelee Risebeck and Kristin Garrison are grateful for the care shown by every member of her healthcare team.
“Everyone just really cared for mom. She wasn’t just another patient to them—they genuinely cared for her,” shares Kristin.
“We felt heard,” adds Kelee. “In my wildest dreams, I never imagined my mom would return home as well as she did,” she continues. “Memorial Health System, they’re part of our team—our family’s team.”
From nursing staff calling with updates during shift changes and care teams securing a specialized walker to help their mother gain back her independence while in rehab, to a nutritionist going out to the grocery store to buy the watermelon that she was craving during a time when nothing sounded appetizing, Kelee and Kristin’s mother was well taken care of throughout her time with Memorial Health System.
