Congratulations to Heidi Rutter, patient care technician, who earned the Daffodil Award for the outstanding care she provides with the cardiac telemetry unit. Heidi was on her lunch break when she stopped to help calm and care for a patient in another unit. Great job, Heidi!

Drew Brahm wasn’t feeling well last fall. He had his wife drive him to Mercy South. At the ER lobby - he had a heart attack - a widow maker. He was clinically dead for 57 minutes. This room is full of doctors and nurses who played a role in bringing him back. @KMOV @MercySouthSTL

Merciful God,
as we carry the ash tattoo of the cross upon our foreheads,
kindle within us memories of your mercy.
Give us the courage to turn away from sin and return to You,
and so find our way to one another.
It is in this turning that we find our truth.
Amen.
