Letter from the President
Dear friends and supporters ,
Spring is a time of renewal and growth , and this season brings exciting news from Baylor Scott & White All Saints Health Foundation ! This spring issue of The Compass embodies the essence of spring , weaving together stories of new beginnings , continued growth and our unwavering commitment to enhancing patient care .
We ' re thrilled to introduce Engle , our furry friend and new animal-assisted therapy dog . Engle brings comfort and joy to patients and staff alike , highlighting our commitment to holistic healing and the power of emotional well-being during treatment .
This spring also marks a special birthday — Andrews Women ' s Hospital turns 16 ! We celebrate 16 years of exceptional care for women , reflecting on countless lives touched and a future brimming with advancements . We also welcome Matt Malinak , the hospital ' s new COO , whose leadership will propel us toward even greater heights in healthcare excellence .
Our recent Beyond the Bag fundraiser enabled the addition of a seventh patient navigator in the Joan Katz Cancer Resource Center , demonstrating our dedication to expanded services and support . Additionally , 54 enthusiastic new physician residents join our Graduate Medical Education program , bringing fresh talent to serve the community ' s health needs .
Each story and milestone represent a chapter in our ongoing journey of renewal and growth . Thank you to our generous donors whose continued support fuels these advancements and allows us to blossom alongside the season . Together , we are cultivating a healthier future for all .
