    We Are Here For You

    It’s important for us to listen to our patients and families. Your feedback makes us better.

    A patient advocate is available to assist patients and families with questions and concerns before, during, and after receiving care at any of our facilities. If you’re staying in the hospital and have a question or concern, please speak immediately to the clinical leader or supervisor for that area, if the immediate team assisting you isn’t able to resolve it.

    After discharge, you can contact our patient advocates:

    You may receive a survey by phone or email after your stay or visit. We encourage you to respond. Positive feedback helps us know what we’re doing well, and if you have a concern, we can work to improve.

    Please see our Patient Rights and Responsibilities page to learn more.


    We Are Consistent

    Like the tides that traverse our peninsula, we are here to be a consistent presence in the lives of our community.

    You can always find us close to home, an essential part of the health landscape. We’ve been here since 1897 and we will continue to be here for you to rely on for your health and wellness.

    The TidalHealth team works to bring a consistent health experience to every patient we encounter – to treat everyone fairly and considerately, to celebrate and embrace the diversity of our community. We flow and adapt to emerging health needs and are always ready to take on new challenges. In high tide or low tide, we’ll be by your side.


    We Are Quality

    Patients and families know quality care when they experience it.

    We define quality of care not just by standards of safety, effectiveness and equitability, but also by serving with kindness and grace. We’re a benchmark system, setting the standard across the continuum, and we have a legacy of firsts and proven accomplishments. 

    Legacy of Firsts

    On Delmarva, TidalHealth was the first to offer cancer services, the first to perform open heart surgery, the first to offer minimally invasive neurosurgery and the first to perform robotic surgery. 

    We also developed Maryland’s largest and most comprehensive cardiac rehabilitation program and opened Maryland’s first ALS treatment center.

    New technologies and advanced disease detection and treatment options continue to define the standard for safer care, faster recoveries and better outcomes.

    Best Doctors

    Whether you need a specialist or a primary care provider who will help you on your health journey, trust the TidalHealth team to give you the best care, close to home.

    TidalHealth providers are highly trained clinicians who believe in putting their skills and talent into personalized care for their friends and neighbors. They consistently strive for excellence through board certification, participation in clinical trials and research, and ongoing education to stay current with the latest evidence-based practices.

    Best Medical Outcomes

    At TidalHealth, we treat everyone who walks through our doors like family and give our absolute best to every patient, every time. 

    We are recognized over and over for our superb medical outcomes and have collected a lot of accolades over the years.
