Grateful Patient Program | Adirondack Health Foundation

At Adirondack Health, every touch, every kind word, and every moment of compassionate care makes a difference. Honoring Helping Hands and Hearts gives you the opportunity to express gratitude for the exceptional caregivers who supported you or your loved one during your healthcare journey.

Your recognition not only celebrates those who made an impact but also helps sustain and enhance the compassionate care that defines Adirondack Health. Whether it was a comforting nurse, a skilled physician, or a dedicated member of our environmental services staff, your appreciation can inspire and uplift those who dedicate their hearts to healing.

The caregiver you honor will be notified of your kind words, but not the amount of your gift.

Say ‘thank you’ in a meaningful way. Honor your caregiver today.

On a crisp winter day along the back trails of Lake Placid, Tristan Glanville was skiing on a trail he had traversed countless times before, confident in its familiar embrace and the serene beauty of nature. The snow-covered landscape and the gentle crunch of his skis on fresh powder painted a picture of tranquility—until one sudden misstep changed everything.

In an instant, Tristan suffered a severe shoulder injury, dislocating his joint and tearing tendons. From there, Tristan's journey took him to the emergency department at Adirondack Health, where a new chapter in his recovery began.
