Gratitude For Renown and Senior Care Plus

Fianna ’ s brother , Harvey Fennell , and his wife , Nancy Fennell .
Fianna had been diagnosed with ovarian cancer , and while she was receiving treatment at Renown , Fianna shared Renown ’ s belief in the healing power of nature . She began working on a project to open a healing garden on campus to benefit patients , their families and caregivers before passing away in 2008 .
Harvey worked with Fianna ’ s daughter , Rebecca Dickson , to help open Fianna ’ s Healing Garden at Renown Regional Medical Center in 2009 . Harvey became a Renown Health board member in 2019 and helped complete an expansion of Fianna ’ s Healing Garden , which re-opened in 2020 .
After Fianna passed , Debe asked herself what she could do to follow in her sister ’ s footsteps and make a difference in the community . Over the last several years , Debe has made volunteering and community service one of her top priorities . With her love of gardening , she took it upon herself to clean up and enhance the gardens in downtown Reno on Riverside Drive . As a member of the Rotary Club of Reno , she worked with the City of Reno to create the Bicentennial Sculpture Park . Debe sat on a committee to choose sculptures as a volunteer for the City of Reno ’ s Arts & Culture committee

As busy as Debe is , she finds a little time each day to enjoy one of her other biggest passions in life : singing . “ I ’ m trained to sing classic tunes , but enjoy singing pop music too ,” said Debe . “ A couple of my favorite artists right now are Teddy Swims and Post Malone .”
Gratitude For Renown and Senior Care Plus
Debe joined Senior Care Plus when she aged into Medicare and has been a member ever since . “ I was paying high premiums for health insurance and was excited to become a Senior Care Plus member to save costs ,” said Debe . “ There are so many things I love about Senior Care Plus , such as the low copays , use of MyChart and access to Renown providers and services . I ’ m also a big fan of Renown Pharmacy , and the mail-order service that delivers my medications right to my front door . Senior Care Plus has great customer service and everyone I talk to is very helpful and responsive . It ’ s really gratifying to be able to have faith in a healthcare system .”
