Our Guardian Angel Program
Was your visit exceptional?
On a regular basis, patients and guests of McLaren Greater Lansing and McLaren Orthopedic Hospital ask what they can do to express their appreciation for exceptional service they received during a recent visit.
McLaren Greater Lansing Foundation has founded the Guardian Angel Program to offer thankful guests an opportunity to recognize individuals or departments who have made a difference in their stay.
- Did a nurse or physician provide not only exceptional clinical care to you or your loved one, but was truly "caring?"
- Were you lost and met a staff member who helped escort you to your destination?
- Did you meet a volunteer who helped make your visit comfortable and treated you like a family member?
- Was your visit from start to finish better than what you expected?
- Was your visit truly a great experience?
