Recently, I returned to my hometown of Fairfield to attend the needs of my mother who suffered a serious health issue which led to her death. During her hospitalization at Jefferson County Health Center, I stayed by her side day and night. This relieved my father to go home each night, to rest, and be cared for by my wife and sister.
During my days and nights at JCHC, I quickly became impressed with all the staff of the hospital, including Dr. Hill and his team. Everyone was extremely thoughtful and caring. The wonderful experience my mother and family received at JCHC was absolutely superb! We were so comforted and encouraged by the friendliness, tenderness, and helpfulness all the nursing staff, special services, even housekeeping expressed to us.
As a pastor, I have been connected with every kind of hospital throughout my years of ministry, but the genuine service, care, and personal attention received at JCHC is beyond comparison.
Respectfully submitted on behalf of the family of Shirley Watson.
