'FanMail iCommendsSinaiHospital
Fan mail is pouring into
Sinai Hospital.
As part of it public relations
program, the newest local Jew-
ish institution, which opened
its doors in mid-January, sends
. a letter to former patients in-
viting their comments or criti-
cism. The purpose of this pro-
cedure, according to Max Osnos,
president, is that the hospital
may be guided by these reac-
tions with a view to constantly
improving; service.
While the replies were intend-
ed for use by the administrative
staff, Mr. Osnos, in addressing
an Allied Jewish Campaign
workers' meeting, stated: "I
know the director of the hospi-
tal, Dr. • Julian Priver, will yield
his mod es t y and permit me
to quote from among the over-
whelmingly favorable message
we have received."
Here are some representative
replies:
1. "Although no one can honestly say
that they enjoy a stay in any hospital,
I want you to know that my sojourn in
your beautiful new hospital was a pleas-
ant one. My congratulations to you and
the Board on doing a wonderful job and
providing the city with an institution
that has ben sorely needed."
2. "While being a patient at your
hospital, I was the recipient of the best
of care, and it shall be my good pleasure
to recommend Sinai hospital to my
friends. At this point, I would like to
thank you for your excellent services
from your doctors and nurses."
3. "After having had few experiences
In hospitals, for which I am very thank-
ful, the time did arise when I sought
the facilities of a hospital, and was priv-
ileged to be able to enter our new
Sinai. It is like a' great big' dream,
and when I entered as a very sick
person, being carried in an ambulance,
I was greatly impressed by the magni-
tude of the hospital and its functions
enabling it to serve and heal. It did a
lot for me for it gave me a moral lift.
I want to congratulate you on the pro-
gress that has taken place, and with your
able leadership, our entire community
will sing words of praise."
4. "My stay at the Sinai Hosiptal was
a pleasant one. The service was very
satisfactory and food was delicious. I
would gladly recommend Sinai Hospital
to any of my friends."
5. "In answer to your letter request-
ing that I write and give my opinion
in regards to the care you receive in
the hospital. I was quite impressed with
the hospital, and the good care my son
received. Everything- was fine, my son
received good care and nurses are cer-
tainly wonderful, the rooms are beautiful
and it hardly seemed like a hospital. It
is wonderful that you are interested
in the comments or criticism that the
public may have."
6. "I am happy to reply to your letter
regarding my recent stay at Sinai Hos-
pital. You are indeed to be congratu-
lated on the excellence of the service
and the pleasant efficiency of all the
personnel.
"I wish I could mention by name all,
the people with whom I established such
pleasant relationships, frtiln the residents
on down to the women who did the
cleaning each day, but unfortunately, I
did not learn many of their names.
"The residents showed a most friendly
interest in me at all times, and the
nurses were especially attentive and
efficent. At no time did I have to ring
for a nurse, as they constantly checked
and anticipated my every want.
"One especial mention I would like
to make is of an anaesthetist who,
before both ray operations, by her
friendly, competent manner, eased my
fears and made me feel that I was with
a friend.
"I am glad of this opportunity to pay
a tribute to these people who made my
stay at Sinai as pleasant as it could
be under the circumstances."
7. "I was there from January 18 to
January 25, very shortly after the open-
ing, and was very agreeably surprised
by the efficiency of the operations—the
members of the staff with whom I came
in contact were capable, kind, and
anxious to please. The meals were served
•n schedule, were well planned. On the
whole. I was well satisfied and felt
that our hospital was one of which we
will soon be proud of every detail."
8. "Our son liked Sinai so much- that
he is returning for an appendectomy to
be performed. Feels he is returning to
old friends. Was perfectly happy with
you.
9. "I wish to comment that I have
nothing but the finest praise for the
service, courtesies, and attentiion I re-
ceived while a patient at the hospital.
I well realized the handicaps you were
under. The food was excellent. The at-
tention given me as a patient by the
nurses, X-ray doctors, technicians, and
so forth were beyond my expectations."
