With 24 years at Penn Medicine Doylestown Health, Lynn Miller has built her career at the intersection of nursing and innovation. Now serving as director of systems applications, she leads the team that keeps the hospital’s technology running seamlessly, always with patients at the heart of every decision.

From spearheading early electronic medical record rollouts to advancing today’s One Penn Medicine integration (an initiative that represents the unified approach of Penn Medicine's integrated health system and its academic institutions), Lynn ensures that every system supports smarter, safer, and more connected care.

“I want users to really understand how our systems work as a whole,” she said, "and that understanding is what empowers teams across Doylestown Health to deliver exceptional care every day."

Thank you, Lynn, for your leadership and passion for advancing care through innovation.

Penn Medicine Doylestown Hospital recently welcomed back nearly 50 of its tiniest graduates, children once cared for in its Intensive Care Nursery, along with their families, to celebrate a special reunion. Some of these babies arrived weighing under 3 pounds; today they’re climbing, laughing, and thriving.

The event featured face-painting, balloon animals, and photo booths, but the real magic was in the hugs between the kids and the nurses who once monitored their tiny heartbeats. It wasn’t just a party, it was a milestone marker of how far they’ve come.

Here’s to the little fighters, and our dedicated team who never stopped believing. http://spr.ly/61897T89x

"Play this game from the lead. Get that colonoscopy." Philadelphia Flyers radio and podcast host Jason Myrtetus is currently undergoing treatment for stage 3 colon cancer.

His biggest takeaway from this experience so far? Getting the recommended screening at age 45 (or earlier, if advised by a doctor) is key to taking care of your health.

At 96 and 95, Lloyd and Midge Vansant have together given an incredible 64 years of volunteer service at Penn Medicine Doylestown Health.

Lloyd started volunteering decades ago, greeting patients and guiding them through the hospital halls, while Midge has been a constant presence in various volunteer roles over the decades where she now supports staff, patients, and families in the waiting room for the heart and vascular service line. Together, they’ve touched countless lives, building relationships and spreading kindness every day.

Their story is just one example of the over 500 volunteers who serve in more than 60 roles, everything from guiding patients and supporting families to therapy dogs bringing joy to hospital floors. Every role matters, and every hand makes a difference.

Thank you Lloyd, Midge, and all our volunteers who are the heart of our community and the reason our hospital feels like home.

Doylestown Health’s culture of service shines through its volunteer program, a coveted opportunity to give back to the hospital that has touched so many lives.

Current and former cancer patients at Penn Medicine Doylestown Health partnered with local author Adam Newton of the Bucks County Writers Group to craft their own original stories and poems which were proudly shared at a special celebration. Their works are now “published” in our Short Edition dispensers across campus.

The Short Edition program began back in 2018. Doylestown Health was the first healthcare system in the United States to offer these short story dispensers and is designed to bring moments of calm, inspiration, and connection to those navigating life in a hospital setting.

We're proud to offer our patients a refreshing pause amid treatment, appointments, or caregiving, and grateful to Adam and our cancer patients for these latest editions.

Ray Eisenhart, RN, a nurse in the catheterization and electrophysiology labs at Penn Medicine Doylestown Health, is the kind of teammate who makes everyone around him better. Whether it’s troubleshooting complex equipment, keeping tools in top shape, or spending hours organizing cables just to make things run smoother, Ray does it all with a smile.

He’s constantly finding ways to make his department safer and more efficient, and his positive energy is contagious. Patients adore him (some even known to request him by name!), and so do we.

It’s easy to see why Ray has been recognized as Associate of the Month. He’s the kind of person who reminds us what great care really looks like, both behind the scenes and at the bedside.

Thank you, Ray, for everything you do. You make us proud.

When a patient described Kevin Jordan, a patient care tech at Penn Medicine Doylestown Health, they didn’t just mention his skill, they spoke about his enthusiasm, his patience, and the comfort he brings at the end of a long day. To them, Kevin felt less like a caregiver and more like a good friend.

That kind of impact is what the R.O.S.E. Award (Remarkable. Outstanding. Service. Everyday.) is all about. This recognition honors patient care techs and unit clerks who provide exceptional care and service to patients and visitors.

Congratulations, Kevin, on this well-deserved award!
