We all know about the great work the doctors and nurses do at Beebe Medical Center. The office staff are also friendly and nice. But in the radiation treatment area where everyone is there to help you, there is always a smile and a warm hello.
Now there is a group of young ladies who are radiation technicians who work with you five days a week. These young ladies set you up for treatment; they always have a smile, and a kind word to help you. They make the treatment just a little bit easier to handle. These young ladies aline you and make sure you get the proper radiation treatment.
Now it’s uncomfortable locked down and unable to move during treatment, but less than one second after treatment stops they are unlocking you and setting you free. These young ladies really do care about their patients.
So with a tip of the hat and pat on the back, I think all patients will join me in a big thank you to the radiation department who make us feel a little bit better.
