More than two years ago, Marshfield Clinic Development launched the Shining Star program to give grateful patients the opportunity to recognize those who make a difference in their Marshfield Clinic experience.
To date, over 200 physicians, staff members and departments have been honored as Shining Stars.Patients who choose to give through the Shining Star program make a gift to support Marshfield Clinic's mission and identify their honorees with a story about how the individual or department's work made a difference. These stories range from life-saving examples to moments where employees simply did their job in assisting a patient.
Some of the most meaningful Shining Stars for employees being honored are those that recognize a seemingly ordinary thing. Shining Star recipients are often amazed that someone took the time to thank them by making a gift for simply doing their job. Employees in such areas as patient financial services, escort services and security have been honored in this way.
Each Shining Star story is unique and impactful. If someone has made a difference in your Marshfield Clinic experience – no matter how big or small it might seem – consider making a gift to honor them through the Shining Star program.
