"It's uncommon for hospitals our size to be capable of providing the depth and breadth—or the level—of surgical services that we do," says Rebecca Bentley, CHI St. Joseph's Health Perioperative Services Director. "We're grateful to be able to offer these services while also being small enough to provide personal, patient- centered care. It's the best of both worlds."
