I recently had the pleasure of attending this hospital in a vendor role and was very impressed. The nurses were top shelf and well-managed by leadership. The staff I spoke with were very satisfied with their work environment, despite the challenges they face during the pandemic. This hospital was groomed well and the parking situation was one of the easiest Ive had to deal with. To add to my positive experience, this hospital had one of the most well-curated art collections Ive ever seen. I dont live anywhere near Kansas but I feel strongly that I would feel feel very comfortable receiving

My husband (Wayne) was airlifted to Hays Medical September 2021 he was battling Covid pneumonia. He started off in Acute Care then was transferred to ICU . We thought we were going to lose him but God had other plans. I thank God everyday for the Doctors, Nurses and Staff for not giving up on him; they battled along side of him. Today December 2021 he was rolled out with a warm farewell and transferred to a rehabilitation center where he will complete his recovery. No amount of words can express how thankful we are for all of you. We are truly blessed. Because of all of you and the prayers answered

The staff and doctors were and are amazing. By the grace and mercy of a loving heavenly Father and the talents and the skills of the hospital staff. I am still alive and well. I was in the hospital for a long stay and was so happy to be healthy enough to leave. I was sad though that would not be able to thank all the staff personally and would undoubtedly never see any of them again. Did I mention that they were amazing?

I've had to take my mom here multiple times and every single time no matter what aspect of the entire complex I'm at I am always impressed with how they handle themselves and the way they treat my mom when they take care of her.
