“I would honestly say that it’s a combination of both. When people first come to the hospital, they’re almost shocked at how nice it looks. A lot of people that just tell us, it kind of feels like a hotel. It doesn’t feel like a hospital. Yeah. That they have ever seen before. from an internal part of in the inside, I mean, an external, I think it’s just it’s almost to have a feel of a college campus,” said Marcus Johnson, Director of Volunteer Services, Phoebe Sumter Medical Center.

“And, I think the aesthetics of the campus, the grounds, having freshly planted flowers every several months and just that we have an immaculate campus. The walking track adds to that aesthetic. But when we look at healing, you know, yes, having that safe environment, but having the piece where that healing environment is here and people can come here and it’s more than just a hospital building,” said Bruce Mattos, Director of Talent Acquisition, Phoebe Sumter Medical Center.
