What Makes Us MedZed

We love to collect and share testimonials directly from the members we’ve served. Through the many we’ve collected- in both written and video format, several elements are always mentioned. These core themes are what make us MedZed. They are the tenets our team believes in and exemplifies every day as they work with members.

Read them below.

Trust at the Center

Everything we do depends on trust. It is what binds us with our members and each another and enables us to accomplish amazing things together.

It is our Superpower.

The personal connection is world changing…

Until you trust a person and tell them what’s really going on, you can’t move forward.

I trust my CHN; we are bonded. I can share and be real with him. He’s brought out things in me I didn’t see and helped make me accountable to work on what I need to.

Empathetic Relationships

We meet our members where they are. We build lasting connections with them and their families.

We are in this together as fellow human beings.

I don’t feel alone; I feel like there’s someone who’s going to be with me, right by my side.

I was having a lot of trouble in the hospital and with doctor appointments. My CHN made it all right and helped me a lot.

I was depressed but now I know I have a lot to live for. I’m positive and I’m ready.

Passion & Drive

We are relentless and creative about leaving no option unexplored, no connection untapped to help a member.

We are determined to find a way.

Everyone at MedZed has over and beyond blessed me…

You’d be amazed how many kindhearted people are at MedZed. They are always there to help me get what I need. They push the doctors and nurses to get things done for the patient. I can’t thank them enough for all their help, support, kindness, and giving.

Patience & Persistence

We hang in there when others don’t. We keep supporting, checking in, encouraging, no matter how frustrating the path to better health might be.

We don’t give up on our members.

When everything is bad, I kinda shut down…but MedZed wouldn’t let me give up

When I was applying for housing, they kept encouraging me, keeping me grounded. And they’re not like most.They don’t just get you something and drop you. They follow up, they still call you and check on you, they don’t leave you out to dry.

MedZed’s got some really good people on their team.

Grounded in Community

We hire from the local communities we serve. Many of us have lived experience of the access and care challenges our members face.

We get it.

It makes my heart so happy because I know what I received from MedZed…

I was your patient and so I understand how lonely and isolating it is to be sick. MedZed was so important to me, medically, psychologically, spiritually. And now, the fact that in my job at the food bank I can help your patients and provide food to them—I can’t even explain how glad it makes me.
