Congratulations to the participants of the Dakota Hospital Foundation Employee Idea Challenge!

This initiative encourages employees to share innovative ideas that enhance patient care, resident experiences, safety, and our overall environment at Sanford Vermillion. We are proud to recognize the outstanding submissions received this year:

• Beth Zabala — Installation of a Midblock Pedestrian Crossing
• Craig Sorensen — Updated Bariatric Bed to Improve Patient Care & Safety
• Eva Schaap — Seating Area in Front of the Care Center
• Tim Young — Care Center TV Stands with Fireplaces

Each submission reflected creativity, compassion, and a commitment to improving the experience for patients, residents, visitors, and staff.
