The team on Yale New Haven Hospital’s Transplantation and Liver Unit (WP 9) earned PEACE (Patient Experience Award for Caring and Excellence) recognition for creating a care environment of compassion, support and empathy for a patient and his family. The patient’s daughter hoped he could attend her wedding, but knew he couldn’t leave the hospital. The WP 9 team coordinated with her to arrange a ceremony in the Smilow Healing Garden. The family was grateful they could celebrate before the patient passed away.
